I was dumb enough to sign up... The results are not impressive at all.

Now they have my CC number. There is no way to cancel your account. There is just a gmail support email... Let's see if I get my $14.99 back.

Could someone elaborate on what the worst-case exploit would be for those number that got leaked? How would a scenario look like? Asking for a friend whose number got exposed...

It might not solve your problem. It does solve problems for other people like me though.

I guess it depends on how hard it is enforced. In the end, consistency is something gray and not black and white.

> They key to a strong culture is consistency from the top. The CEO's job is to make sure everyone on the management team is on the same page. If a senior leader wants to create their own unique culture for their part of the org, they can't be allowed to stay.

I love this entire thread and it resonates a lot with me. I, too, believe that there is not THE right company culture that will solve everybody’s problems. Many in the agile or “new work” camp seem to believe that their way is the ONLY way, for example.

Consistency is much more important than how the culture actually is.

Maybe. And maybe he’s there because he is a smart lad who knows which products to monitor closely.

After all he bought Instagram and WhatsApp for peanuts, and copied the best features of SnapChat.

> So, what did we learn?

1. If you are coding or writing, multiply the expected time of any specific task by ∼ 1.5x (the real completion time will now probably still be 1.5x longer than your new expected time, but you tried).

1.5x matches my real-world SW dev experience.

Is there a good page about font sizes, spacings and all that?

Thanks for the write-up, absolutely fascinating.

Mind-boggling to imagine how all that then led to living objects and finally us exchanging messages on this platform.

Makes you wonder if it all happened by pure chance or if we are all part of an elaborated plan...

There is a doctor on HN who frequently writes about how bad overdosing Vitamin D can be. So I’d be careful on the dosage at least.

The site is hosted on medium. I doubt that it can be hugged to death?
