on: 'Mr. Robot' creator on the evils of Facebook and hackers in Hollywood
I'm quite fond of this tv series so far. Definitely the most accurate portrayal of "hacker" technology that I've seen on screen, that I can think of anyway.

I've been wondering the same thing lately. I tried posting to the NodeJS subreddit, but it's near deserted.

We buy Bing ads and they covert better than Google. Though there's far fewer referrals.

Because a business shouldn't constrained to fit an available domain. Dropbox originally registered getdropbox.com because dropbox.com wasn't available. If they'd worried about an available domain name they wouldn't have ended up with something nearly as fitting.

on: The Agonies of Picking a Product Name (2011)
I'm in two minds whether or not to consider if the domain is available when choosing a name.
On the one hand I don't think it should be a factor, on the other hand I know I'll be checking anyway.

Most fantasy readers tend to dismiss Feist's work, it's good to find someone else who appreciates it.

on: Stripe in Talks for Up to $500M in New Funding
I enjoyed working with Stripe, they greatly simplified the whole process. However we've had to move back to a traditional gateway due to the 7-day rolling bank deposits in Australia. Taking 6 days of cash-flow out of the business just isn't good enough.

on: The Twitter Rules
I've been impressed with the decisions your team has made in regards to this and other issues, such as the jailbait subs a couple years back. It's a fine line at a community like Reddit who pride free speech, but I think you've made the right choices and the community has backed you.

I use Lastpass Enterprise to manage the workplace users and their passwords, overall it works quite well. For personal logins I use Keepass synced using Google Drive.
