That's a really good idea.

The canonical text on the subject is "The Tyranny of Structurelessness" by Jo Freeman.

Freeman was a member of the 70's feminist movement, and wrote this essay to critique how 'flatness' played out - and suggest alternatives.

The big, tl;dr idea could be boiled down to this: Flat organizations substitute unelected, informal leaders for visible, accountable ones.

Also quick note to point out that Sinak has been doing stellar work as a designer, backend engineer, and leader throughout this.

Props to you for gathering us together, Sina.

Here's a way to check traps, gather wood, and stoke the fire separately:

var stoke = function(){if(!$('#stokeButton').hasClass('disabled')){$('#stokeButton').trigger('click')}}

var check = function(){if(!$("#trapsButton").hasClass('disabled')){$("#trapsButton").trigger('click')}}

var gather = function(){if(!$("#gatherButton").hasClass('disabled')){$("#gatherButton").trigger('click')}}

g = setInterval(gather, 1000) c = setInterval(check, 1000) s = setInterval(stoke, 60000)

What Keynesian 6 trillion dollars are you talking about?

Seems like you're doing what the OP was trying to inspire others to do. Congrats.

This is the best thing I've read on Hacker News in a long time.

Yes, because people who call out racism are the REAL racists.

Exactly.

Right now it redirects to the White House petitions site. Would you like it to do something else instead? Happy to hear your thoughts.

I'm no expert on these sorts of things, but it seems like the story goes something like this:

1. Dev checks out his site using IE

2. Dev realizes that IE users were getting scary warnings about his software

3. Dev has to pay up money to a third company to make the scary warnings go away.

Seems like a bad state of affairs to me.
