Was on and off reader of RS.
Their non/half apology for their University of Virginia rape story really turn me off.
They didn't seem to understand (or care?) what they did wrong and thus didn't really apologize.

You can point few examples for any horrid behavior.
Saying things are not clearly much better is silly.
The PM of Ireland is openly gay.

? Not sure what you mean. She isn't black.
Do you mean because Kanye is on there?

Or Uber will secretly program a few self driving cars that are not Ubers to crash in to people.
This will stall self driving legislation for 5 more years.
you heard it here first.

Will a more qualified woman be passed over for a less qualified man, yet again?
Probably as these leaks are about 4 days to late.

from your page:

might move that up to #2 point. add in no creepy facebook like face features storing (worded better) to drive home the point

How does having billionaires mean there is a large population that you can monetize?

Did you read the story?
This is an alleged comment made in a private mtg in 2015. When in private do you make full statements with nuance every time you speak?
Re:Ask HN: App screenshot on business card?

Well your name fits you well...
Yes it would be better just to tell people about the app. But for next few weeks I will be at events that the best shot I will be able to do is pass them out to people as they walk by.

Thanks for your impute.
Looking at the iPhone 5s screen, it is just a tad bigger than a standard biz card. I was thinking of showing about half of a screenshot expanded just a little.
I agree that graphic would be better. I just wanted something I could pass out for next two weeks while I workout a better way to present the app on the card. It would be better to personally talk to everyone but for some events that would not be possible.
Ask HN: App screenshot on business card?
I want to put part of screenshot from our app on a business card. This would not be a personal card, but one to pass out to people so they get the idea of the app and then (hopefully) download it.Has anyone done this and if so how was the response? Did it spur questions about the app? Do you think a screen shot is good enough quality to put on a business card?
