I found one line from that article really funny: > an LA-based company that was run by a self-proclaimed co-founder of MySpace I've met several people in southern california that say they are myspace co-founders. Why on earth is m

I'm a guy, and I would quit if that's the kind of behavior I could expect out of my colleagues on a regular basis. I've worked in the industry for a long time, and I have never seen anything like that. It seems like a very ba

It looks like you forked because rust-cpython was abandoned. I see that Dan Grunwald pushed a commit in today after no activity since May. He probably just went on summer vacation.

I hate perl6. I hate it because I tried to get involved in the project early on, and it led me down the Haskell rathole. I don't know what Haskell looks like today, but a decade or more ago it was the hardest language to pick up that

I don't disagree, but that's really absurd. Installation is not particularly difficult. There are dangers, but It's not significantly challenging. The market requires it - because all those solar companies wouldn't ex

I remember this case from when it happened. I can't believe it's been that long. It seemed pretty obvious at the time that the parking lot guard was innocent. The DA was stuck on the idea that if he was doing his job he would h

If they can't convince soundcloud it's a positive, they should not be doing it.

That could cost them more than $50K in bandwidth. Or if you worked with them, and both of you happened to be in Amazon, that could be a no-cost transfer.

Working for the right people has benefits beyond monetary ones. Knowing the right person can be helpful to getting your kid in the right school, or in to see the right doctor. Being vocally appreciated in a field where that is not particu

Job hopping works. But the more you do it, the more you can expect to see skepticism from hiring managers. Software development is a little bit different because right now there is more demand for workers than there are good developers. I

If these kind of entities actually want to preserve resources, they shouldn't be generating a petabyte of bandwidth charges. Contact soundcloud and come to an agreement that will be responsible.

People spend entirely too much time debating how to avoid a giant ball of unmaintainable junk while driving their projects to inevitably become giant balls of unmaintainable junk. You can do monoliths bad. You can do microservices bad. Yo

I'm splitting hairs, but 'sublicense' and 'sublicense under any license of our choosing' are two different things. I'm surprised FB's CLA isn't more explicit.

I hate to say it, but you have a perfectly valid point. I hate to say it because it makes changing the license significantly more problematic than it seemingly was an hour or two ago. By changing the license, Facebook assumed rights to con

The LevelDB copyright notice is still in place, so presumably no.

I would certainly concede that. And I'm not trying to rain on React's parade here. I'm just saying that HN is particularly pro-React as a community.

That's interesting. I've done a good deal of work in all three verticals and introducing a restricted license in any of their environments would have been a tough sell that involved a legal review and a well documented business c

This is more than adequate. DOIs are simply redirects. It's up to the data owner to point the DOI at whatever resource contains the data. If a DOI is registered, it can be pointed to the quilt URL. You can take it a step further and

The idea that there should be a breakdown of domains by country is a bad one. There's this situation. There are many other situations where countries don't have the resources or drive to maintain what they have been allocated.

I was just venting... and you provided a great answer to my rhetorical question - which I found very interesting by the way. I didn't see Russ' evaluation, but I get the point.
