It does. Dependant changes/commits can be pushed at once, and if they are submitted out of order, they will be queued until the dependant changes are submitted/merged. In recent gertit releases, you can even submit (merge) all changes in a particular topic at once.
The Brother color lasers also are happy to print without color toner cartridges present.
By contrast, HP's cheaper color lasers require the cartridges to be present, and if they run out and are left in the machine, they cause banding over your printouts. This is due to their integrated drums wearing out, so you have to replace the color toners even if they're not being used (or hack around with transferring chips onto less-used old cartridges, even black ones so they're seen as colour ones).
This is not true, I owned a 700$ multifunction printer scanner, copier, everythinger and it required me to hack the cartridges to print black, it always put shitty yellow tracking dots on all printouts. Don't send more business to Brother.
They have the worst software (on printer and in driver) of any printer company I have come across. Their driver installers download random bits from IP addresses in Japan with zero encryption. The hardware is stellar, the software is cringe worthy.
This is on a Mac. I wanted to see if the firmware bugs would be fixed by using their firmware update tool. The printer itself times out when attempting an on-device firmware upgrade. The downloaded update utility just attempts to grab a new firmware image from an IP which is non-responsive.
It can't scan over AirPrint if it has gone to sleep, it only can accept print jobs via IPP if you want it to WOL. So I have two printers configured, one via AirPrint for scanning and another via IPP for printing. There are so many low hanging firmware bugs that it makes me think the same folks wrote healthcare.gov

Prefer on-site in our London office but may consider remote applications for the right candidate as long as you're located +/-3 hours from London (GMT) timezone.
Terms negotiable: long-term contract or employment.
Try CopyCopy. We do bookmarking and article saving but more broadly let you keep anything for later just by copying it (using normal copy and paste). So we handle not just web articles, but any information that's copyable in any app! See https://www.copycopy.com/
If our homepage isn't clear enough, check out https://www.copycopy.com/product (excuse the unfinished wording on that page as it's not live yet).
We thought animations would be good enough but people do like to see the real live thing. Here's a live demo, albeit one with rather poor sound and editing: https://vimeo.com/140990404. Password is "disrupt".
I've founded a startup that wants to tackle the digital notebook and save-for-later problem, for any content - not just web stuff. What's your wish list for your ideal notebook?
Flexible structure (notebooks > sub-notebooks > notes), notebook level encryption, real-time sync, widely cross-platform, images (with light annotation), markdown editing, zoom text (cmd/ctr-+), light-weight/fast, fantastic search, no tags. I'd like to share a notebook or make a note public, no chat. I will pay anything.
Desktop and mobile clients for all major platforms (including Linux, which most note taking tools don't support), markdown editing, possibility to backup to a local drive, Android widgets.
I like something that I can buy and host myself so that when the over-valued company decides to stop making it I can still use it. Then again, I'm probably not a target user base for somebody looking for the next big thing.
I thought many times about building this kind of self-hosting note taking app, but what's stopping me is that it's not very useful without all the mobile and desktop clients, and that's very hard to develop. That's probably the reason why there's currently no good open source solution for this.
tagSpaces does a fairly decent job of it. its only missing a few hundred features compared to evernote but its mainly just one guy making it for the last few years so its fairly impressive at the same time.
hopefully more features will be added eventually like a proper tagging system and stuff like note links, better search etc.
OTOH if you can afford the time and resources, then human customer support is an excellent source of user research. If you record these customer queries you can discover what's the next bit of functionality that your users want, that your competitors don't provide. You also discover which existing functionality isn't explained well enough.
You can use the normal self-service helpdesk methods to filter out the newbie questions.
CopyCopy, London, UK | REMOTE or ONSITE | Marketer/Growth Hacker
CopyCopy is a young, cosy, startup on the cusp of launching a groundbreaking consumer productivity app.
We require someone to help us get many many users to try out our service!
The ideal candidate would:
• Know the correct channels for marketing our product.
• Have good writing and communication skills.
• Be prepared to get hands-on posting on all relevant marketing channels and pushing our product.
• Have been involved in a tech product launch.
Brownie points if:
• You've worked in advertising to some extent.
• You've done some really cool "growth hacking" in past.
• You've got some coding or design ability.
Remote applications are fine as long as you're located +/-3 hours from London (GMT) timezone but we're very happy to have you on-site in our London office. Will consider shorter term or longer-term contract or employment for the right candidate.
We started out doing exactly that... send an email with a human readable date to our service, and we'll send you that email back. We also support recurring reminders (every3days@followup.cc), sending attachments directly to evernote (evernote@followup.cc), dropbox, drive, and other things: http://help.followup.cc/knowledge_base/topics/cheat-sheet
We do a lot more now, but that's still our core functionality. We also have a widely adopted Chrome Extension that also makes this a point-and-click operation, but I personally go with the text based approach.
I hear you. We have had a ton of adoption of our Chrome Extension, which also has features like Open Tracking, Send Later and Salesforce Integration. When you click to create a reminder in the extension, we do populate the "bcc" field with the text based version of the email just to show users how it works.
That said, I agree that a simple explanation on the homepage would be useful for people who are just interested in the reminder piece.
