Epic fail. Mozilla should be making the browser subsystems more secure, not saying 'Trust us, we'll ensure your add-ons are secure'. Will the add-ons source code be reviewed by a CISSP skilled in the languages used within the

You're not the only one. The OASIS attempt at a standard was called XDI, specifically the Link Contracts portion of XDI. It failed to achieve traction, in large part due to political opposition. If you want to talk more about this, and

Erlang - Because it handles scalability and reliability very well, is Actor based (each process being an Actor), has a great library for backend stuff in OTP, and because I love it. Tie between Elixir (because scripting language that runs o

I agree with the earlier comment that it sounds interesting. I'd be more excited if there was a clear means for smaller companies to join the initiative. Is this intended as a commercial joint venture by ProcessOne and Quvik, or as an

No, at least based on what I've heard (I have not succeeded as an entrepreneur yet). Instead, find a problem that scratches a personal itch and is big enough to impact the country, or ideally the world. Then iterate in quick cycles, w

This is a great project. However, given the nature of the project and the license, would this then require any software hosted with it to be AGPLv3? Could I run software that is a mix of Apache, MIT, and Erlang Public License in a VirtKick

I am so jealous. Being his student would be an amazing learning experience. I suspect this will be a major trend - and that we'll see more and more remote teaching resources. A possible opportunity for YC16.

That is an excellent observation. I was in the Open Reputation Management Systems Technical Committe at OASIS. During the initial discussions there we mostly agreed that reputation has to be multidimensional, for exactly that reason. I may

I do not usually comment, but on this I have to. If you do not know the primary tasks of version control (checkout, committing, branching, tagging, creating a new repository, forking a repository) then you cannot call yourself a programmer.

Bingo. If you accept a non-compete clause, you are part of the problem. You may have no choice if you are desperate - but if you are a decent programmer that really shouldn't be a problem. I have worked for companies that have non-com

I think it is important to note that the Agile manifesto does not say we don't need the things on the right. Instead it says value the things on the left over the things on the right. For example it doesn't say you only need peo

I think this might be an interesting way of advertising that they are hiring, check the ASCII art at the top of the source. Something more esoteric would be more interesting..maybe a small but prominent Pi in the lower right hand corner tha

I used to be a freelancer, and plan to be one again someday. The thing about freelancing is risk vs reward. If you are good enough at selling, delivery, and juggling then the money you can make is astounding, especially if you can travel t
