The "use the imperative mood" trope has gotten completely out of hand, and the "If applied, this commit will ..." argument is entirely nonsensical. You can slightly adjust the lead-in and make the same exact argument for

Are you kidding? So what if he's an engineer? The guy's a lunatic and this is nothing more than some weird publicity stunt. It's a cry for attention, nothing more. This whole race has become a circus.

Nice comment, especially your second paragraph. It's nearly exactly how I feel as well. What made you get back into Eclipse/Java?

Good on you. Don't be rude, but don't beat around the bush, and maybe someone will understand eventually.

You're right, my phrasing was a bit misleading. It was just the most dramatic example of a "major change" I could think up.

No big deal, it wasn't a slight against you, but rather the OP. It's not your fault he reposted your two year old benchmarks.

I really can't imagine that this benchmark is relevant anymore. Haven't Go, D, and Erlang had major changes since then? E.g., Go is now compiled by a compiler written in Go.

I disagree. Would it be accurate to call The GitLab Enterprise Edition "open source"? If not, what would you call it?

People just hate when you correct their semantics, don't take it personally. Many people also don't know the difference between free and open. Here's a popular article by RMS which explains the difference: http://w

That's not the definition of "open source", that's the definition of "free software". As you can see by this very article, "open" and "free" are not the same. http://www.gnu.org&#

When you consider exactly how much information we have to go on, I think people are overreacting by immense proportions. Do we even know why Victoria was fired yet? Maybe she was about to blow the lid off a vast internet conspiracy. Or mayb
