I agree that isn't a health related choice. But fighting one battle doesn't mean they have to fight all of them.

There's an interesting question that arises from this though: are more people now addicted to sugar because everyone is now aware of the terrible results of long term smoking (but aren't as aware of the problems with sugar)? Shoul

There's also some evidence that smokers die earlier and are less of a burden on the health services than non smokers. I mean it's a terrible reason to support smoking, but I kind of support your viewpoint. I don't think there

Though I guess what they could do in such a scenario is implement a service which uses the signing server and hope to run undetected. Yes?

John Oliver's segment massively downplayed the fact that men also get harassed online, to the point that I lost a lot of respect for it. It effectively made online harassment a female only problem, which it most definitely is not. This

It was low risk on my behalf. A full time job taken in 2000 when everyone was letting people go (and I had been out of work for 6 months despite a high profile in the open source community). At a decent pay. I do think I should have at leas

Totally true. I developed the product that was responsible for >50% of the company's revenue and walked away with 0.04% at exit. It was decent, not life changing. I probably should have negotiated significantly higher. Hindsight etc

The numbers in this article are way off. A higher end employee (senior/chief engineer) who joins at say #30 in a company will still have a decent exit on a $250million exit. I say this as someone experienced in this.

He's a very interesting guy who I thoroughly enjoyed interacting with at the anti spam conferences he set up. As a speaker at the conference we got to visit his home where he graciously hosted many anti spam geeks with his own resource

Nothing much to add except good luck Gadi. There's always going to be bad actors in this world and the more techniques the better. (Slight disclaimer: I know Gadi well from the anti-spam world)

Maybe it's just the right thing to do. When VA Linux IPO'd they let everyone who had contributed in some way to their open source distribution into the family and friends plan. I was one of them and managed to re-pay my mum for le

It's a lot of syntactic sugar and things removed. Even the ?: operator which I use a lot. Typing "a = if b then c else d" is a huge wasted opportunity to just keep the ?: op. Plus there's no way to get the == operator ev

And the language Atom is written in supports Unicode very badly indeed, to keep things relevant to the topic at hand.

Given the question is here on HN, I think the question is more oriented towards: can this business survive? If you didn't pay anything for these requests, I don't see how it can.

Are they really going to keep the same number of hosts per server, given they can now get more out of a server? It would be great if they will, but I have doubts.

Github calls these "machine users". But it's more annoying to manage than the deploy keys UI.

You can, but the interface for doing so is significantly more annoying.

It would definitely be more honest to have this on their site. That certainly shouldn't be worth more than a few percent.

The thing you want is called "getting old". You realize the benefits of certain things and know about the weaknesses before they are even brought up. Sadly this can't easily be taught - it is just slowly learned. And yet us o

HN was the same about Node too. In a year we will see the same articles about Rust.

One of the reasons nobody has mentioned yet is that bcrypt ignores everything after the 56th character in the password. Not many people have passwords that long, but it's still relevant.

I wouldn't say unnoticed. Security researchers have known about DM for years. It's one of the most annoying pieces of malware to convince people they have because they don't think Linux can be infected.

It's fascinating that people are arguing so vehemently against you and yet iTunes (and later Spotify and friends) did exactly that. My friends who all subscribe to Spotify or Rdio now say they haven't downloaded a single song sinc

Someone will build it. But it still just adds another proprietary API to the arsenal. Ugh. I echo other sentiments here: what exactly is broken about XMPP that companies keep moving away?

You still have to pay for vested stock if you quit before an exercise event. I'm not saying he didn't do that, but it's hard for a lot of people to come up with that cash.

It's generally not considered to be polite on a forum to tell someone you will answer them elsewhere. It takes away the benefit of the answer from everyone else.

While slightly true, as a popular package author, it's honestly no harder than adding support for another version of node. Supporting node 0.12 was a big enough change (particularly for compiled modules) that thankfully io.js was exact

Why would people comment there though when the issue even points out that the discussion is on the io.js issue? Seems rather petty.
