What does a specific extension's license have to do with VS Code? The only argument I can see is that they should be going back to all their old corporate contracts and renegotiating them to allow open source, but that's hardly a

Yeah, sure, set up a recovery process I don't need anywhere else in life and hope I never mess that up. Then have several thousand people (or far more if I'm lucky) rely on it, I'm sure that'll go well! I don't need

Right, they ported their proprietary language server from Visual Studio to VS Code. Why would we expect them to open-source a completely different project just because they're adding support for a new editor?

Sure, but I'm not sure how much progress you're going to make in the 2-3 hours one would spend on a speculative take-home task (they've stated there is no guaranteed interview). You're going to be judged on how well the

You expect candidates to spend 20-30 hours on a task, and you don't even guarantee an interview? Talk about exploitative. Hell, that's incredibly biased. Can you imagine a young parent being able to do that?

by Dayshine 6y ago
That only works if your task is equally unexpected/unusual for all candidates. If it isn't then either you punish them for being familiar with your stack (as you don't get that valuable knowledge) or you punish them for not b

Then those users mess up dependencies, or simply forget to update the package for a few years. Then open source maintainers get spammed with angry users because of a poor user experience they can't control.
