What a joy to work with Bryan et al. Probably the best paid education you could imagine.
Is Samsung doing nothing with joyent? Seems they could and should be competing heavily in the server space if not the public cloud itself more meaningfully than they seem to be today.
- skube 7y agoMr. node.js on the server? That dood has done more harm to our industry than many.
- zeveb 7y ago> What a joy to work with Bryan et al. Presumably not for Ben Noordhuis: https://www.joyent.com/blog/the-power-of-a-pronoun https://www.joyent.com/blog/the-power-of-a-pronoun That blog post is why I resolved never to do business with Bryan Cantrill or Joyent. I don't know if it influenced others to do likewise, but I can't imagine that it actually helped the company succeed.
- appleflaxen 7y agoBut the entire point of the post you linked is that they don't work together.
- nosequel 7y agoIt sounds to me like the parent was on Ben's side and he wanted to keep all the gendered pronouns in place.
- ktm5j 7y agoSo you don't want open source to be more inclusive? Seems like a silly reason for your decision.. I don't understand your motivation here.
- lurker20484 7y agoWow, didn't realise Bryan was such a dick. What a shame.
- ra33it 7y ago"an engineer that has so little empathy as to not understand why the use of gendered pronouns is a concern almost certainly makes poor technical decisions as well." lurker resembles this remark.
- sgt 7y agoMy goodness. Bryan Cantrill comes off as a complete fascist in that blog post. I can't believe he would actually post something like that on Joyent's domain. It's a personal attack on someone doing something he disagrees with. Shaming via a public space like that is just not done. It's okay to agree to disagree on a subject like gendered pronouns, just like it's okay to disagree on abortion laws or gun control.
