Put it under your account, in case you stop working for the company. If that library gains traction, you can move it to its own ORG, which makes it easier to manage other contributors. Finally look out if that project could be moved to othe

That reminds me of the clothing brand "Lonsdale", which contains "NSDA". So if you wear a jacket, you can hide the other letters. It was worn a lot in the German neo-nazi scene because Hitler's party was called &quo

Maybe it is a cultural difference, because here in Germany we are highly protected by employment laws. My contract has 3 month notice time. So I never felt the need to save the contact details of recruiting agents. But then I am just at the

Author here. Well, in my experience the people asking me if I am interested are rather rude. I politely explain to them that I am not interested and a lot of follow-up questions come flying in. Why is that? That is why created the page, I a

I made this to scratch my own itch. I wan't to be able to tell recruiters that I am not interested, but instead of repeating myself, I now can drop the link. I'll also add the link to my social media profiles (linked.in and xing).

If you want to go the mentioned "rewrite-whole-history" route, I have used BFG Repo Cleaner [0] successfully in the past. It's way faster than git-filter-branch [1]. Another thing: You can work with shallow clones. If the com

Video game soundtracks should be really good, as they often contain no vocals and are supposed to keep you focused (on the game). E.g. Deus EX Human Revolution Soundtrack [0]. Movie scores from Hans Zimmer are also really good (e.g. Incepti

not only interesting, but it is a security consideration [1]. Depending on hashing algorithm, it can take minutes to hash long passwords, so it's not just a RAM, but also a CPU issue. [1]: https://www.helpnetsecurity.com&#x2

I wouldn't say trivial, even if you know how the system works, it can take a lot of time to break things. A good example would be Enigma. There is the BOINC based project Enigma@Home [1], which tries to decypher intercepted messages. O

I don't know, I think it's just how you are... Some people swear, other's don't. And I think it easier to be cynical/sarcastic than to criticize in a positive way. This is especially true, if you are a) limited in t

Simple mails are not court admissible in Germany. So if you want to submit something, e.g. a termination of an ISP contract, the best way is a fax.

I highly recommend by the late Hans Rosling: Why the world population won’t exceed 11 billion. It explains quite well what the sister comment by riffraff refers to. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LyzBoHo5EI

The problem is, that maintaining a stable API seems like not being that easy. Especially in open source projects where most of the people spend their free time and it is easy to make a tiny mistake to break an API. You asked for specific pr
