I love the built in pomodoro timer and the intentional goal setting


I love this idea! I have used Flow Club a lot and this would keep me even more accountable.


So this was something built internally inside a VC firm and then opensourced?


Hi Harini here, I lead technology at Antler, a global VC. We built this for internal use at Antler and decided to open source it as we felt lot of startups can benefit from it and avoid having to built yet another admin portal. We are actively working on adding features and improving the project.


Google Photos and Google Maps are underrated in terms of future potential for Google's business


Google Photos by far is my favorite Google app. Whatever team works on that should be in charge of everything at Google.


Whoever set this up should have taken Introduction to Web Security first


and web design


+1 love to see companies with innovative interview process that go beyond standard tech interviews and really try get to know applicants. I chose an internship one summer just because I enjoyed the interview process so much.


+1 Can also confirm the ease of development for us (Playbook HR) and the joy of working with Jonathan and Daniel


Does ElementaryOS run better than Ubuntu on it?


I can't say for sure unfortunately as my only previous experience of Ubuntu on a Chromebook was via Crouton on a Samsung which, being ARM, was somewhat limited in what you could do with it.

Elementary on the other hand I run natively via dual boot. It's nice and slick, and I much prefer Pantheon to Unity, but I can't really give you a direct comparison on this device.


> being ARM, was somewhat limited in what you could do with it

What are the limitations and where do they come from? I suspected something like that could be true, but not exactly sure.


I don't have a Chromebook, but I do have an HP netbook running an AMD APU. Elementary OS does run better than Ubuntu on it, but granted, it has a decent video card. I've no idea why it was so much smoother in regular usage, but it is!


Actually zimride got sold to enterprise. Maybe they needed to build out the two-sides of the marketplace before being able to actually do "ride-sharing"


When I moved from Portland, OR to Los Angeles, CA I sold the extra seat in the Penseke truck on Zim Ride.
