This is a great read of a phishing scam from a Craiglist housing post by @JeffLadish

Take it to Denver! The views in Colorado are lovely.

Well, the way I think about it, the experience of uploading a picture taken with a camera should be similar to a native app — in Apple Mail on iPhone it asks you what size you want, for example. Would love that choice in a form.

Easy compression for photo uploads (in plain old web forms) in mobile browsers!

I was in Iowa and watched countless volunteers pour their hearts and souls into the campaigns. The app that failed is by a for-profit tech company founded by "veterans" of the 2016 Clinton campaign. Nothing will get fixed till these people stop failing up. twitter.com/ShadowIncHQ/st…

Oops, thank you! Twitter autocomplete strikes again...
(Sometimes on this web site I really wonder why rather basic things don't work.)

Also worth knowing that in California you can file your taxes online for free with CalFile (and it looks pretty well-designed!) @CAfranchisetax

Really cool to see @JustinElliott from @propublica sharing their guide on how to ACTUALLY file your taxes for free on the /r/povertyfinance sub-reddit

I think your read on the whole is right (re: aggregates for example) but you underprice the downside cost here.
Really what Iowa itself provides is a media night (eg paper headlines next day). Not having that seems a high cost, given its...basically the ONLY unique value here.

Robby Mook App-gate seems to be another viral unsourced rumor?
Misreporting by DailyDot, which reported on the trend with a misplaced citation to NYTimes...prior to that spread by right wing influencers, some Intercept reporters, people who hate HRC, etc. pic.twitter.com/iZ2Hq94X5B

What I’m trying to say is that *this* is not a context in which to build a custom app that will be used for the first time on the night of the caucus. What do you think the 👍 path is here?

BTW if (as some reporting is showing) the problems are “user error” you still fucked up:
If it doesn’t work for users it doesn’t work.

But actually: for highly-sensitive domains, use commodity (highly battle-texted) software or... just stick with phone calls and paper.
