Ask HN: Best app for keeping track of information as a manager?

Posted by gs7 on Saturday May 25, 2019 @12:03PM
from the ask-hn dept.

Hi HN,I've recently been promoted from software engineer to manager of an 8 person department. I now have to lead projects, keep track of things discussed in meetings, and generally maintain some kind of record of what's going on with teams and individuals in the department.Do you have a recommendation for software I could use for this? I already looked at Evernote, Asana, and Trello, but they...

The Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman. Fantastic book that makes you realize how poorly designed many things in our lives are.

Off topic, but for anyone curious what that image is without clicking: it's a hairy testicle in an egg cup. The title reads "Hacker News" and the caption is "A DDoS made of finance-obsessed man-children and brogrammers".

Ask HN: Will tax bill lower taxes for SaaS businesses?

Posted by gs7 on Tuesday December 12, 2017 @11:59AM
from the ask-hn dept.

From the limited reading I've done on the Republican tax bill and my limited knowledge of tax law in general, I can't tell if the bill will lower taxes for owners of small to medium SaaS businesses or keep them the same. It sounds like corporations will have a lower tax rate, but service businesses (e.g. consultants, doctors, lawyers) are excluded from that. Does anyone have any insight into...

I thought it was unique enough for it to be unlikely a coincidence, but if I was wrong I sincerely apologize for the accusation.

Plagiarizing a 2 month old Youtube comment, really?
Re:PadMapper (YC S10) is Joining Zumper on Thursday February 25, 2016 @06:30PM (#11178707)
I don't think it would. I messed with this scammer for a good while and I found that they either use Google Voice or apps like Burner to get new, virtual cell phone numbers easily.
Re:PadMapper (YC S10) is Joining Zumper on Thursday February 25, 2016 @06:27PM (#11178688)
Appreciate the response and with this news I totally get how busy you must have been lately. Also didn't know you had a hellban system; that's smart. In that case, all is forgiven :)
Re:PadMapper (YC S10) is Joining Zumper on Thursday February 25, 2016 @06:07PM (#11178584)
Congrats. I used to be a big fan of Padmapper until recently and kept recommending it to my friends and family, but I've noticed that it has become a cess pool of scammers. When I encountered one of these scammers and reported them to Padmapper support, I was assured it would be dealt with. This was a month ago and the scammer's profiles are still active on the site (his newer profile still has listings: http://www.padlister.com/profile/show/469392). I emailed Eric directly about it too, but received no further response. I was pretty disappointed by the lack of action on their part and I ended up switching back to Craigslist for my latest apartment search.

I just received a call that the truck has been recovered in central California. We're super relieved. Thank you all for your support!
