Bending Spoons also bought Evernote. They seem to have a portfolio of "used-to-be-the-thing" products. Are they buying the products or users - they laid off the entire staff of Filmic after purchasing them.

I'd never heard of him and now I hear flags across the US will be at-half mast. He's was a billionaire-sponsored influencer if I understand it correctly?

If you're not vendoring, there's an argument to say that some portion of your source code is fair game to anyone who has commit rights to a variety of repos.

I think there is a hard limit on the number of in-flight requests (that is items that have been dequeued by a worker, but whose job has not been completed). I wouldn't be surprised if Reddit hit those sorts of volumes.

Why do you think this? It clearly says that RBI fixed the issue on the day they it was found and disclosed. It seems pretty reasonable to publish, given that?

Isn't that same resistance the thing that enables you to float in the first place though? I don't really swim so don't understand the analogy I'm afraid. The debt analogy works because you're taking a shortcut that

IME it's less than a "capture", more that most outside of academia don't have the requisite learning to be able to think in the abstract outside of trivial examples.

I mean, if there's one thing we know about Google - give it a few years and they'll ditch that thing they were _so_ into. Products, principles, whatever.

There's a difference between Free Speech - which is a power relation wrt the legislative branch, and freedom of consequences of your speech - which is a power relation wrt the executive.

Saying anything bacon related in front of the pigs (slang for police) has _always_ been a sure fire way to wind them up and get your collar felt. You're only doing that if you're looking for a scrap.

> If your test is creating confidence in broken code with failing tests, it would be better for it to not exist. The author never considers the other option of fixing the flaky tests. I find this odd.

Arguably because people no longer talk about politics.

I dunno, at the place of work because that's where power is exercised - which is what politics is? But ok, let's not talk about Miguel who "no longer works here" or Sara who had to move to a different state.

That seems like an incredibly selfish way of thinking. You have everything to lose by _not_ talking about politics.
