Agreed. If you don't make it your business to create the perfect workflow software for your coworkers, and instead learn to use it as designed, it may not be perfect, but it works well and has some really nice features. It certainly wo

My experience also suggests that this is the real issue. Someone has to make a decision on which solution to use for their "agile" development workflow, but this someone doesn't understand that they are actually purchasing a

I thought for a moment this was about the propaganda "Channel 1" I was forced to watch every morning in home class in my Texan middle-school.

Clearly any Facebook employee that wants to jump in here would be welcomed. There seems to be a lot of interest in what might have motivated the above comment.

I like you idea for allowing tweaking the ranking to personalize results. Kinda like the equalizer on a stereo. It's obviously subjective whether one enjoys more bass or more treble.

How about a button that lets me choose a FireFox build using 100% OSS and which includes zero built-in user data capture technology?

How about open-sourcing your product before worrying about improving other products? SpiderOak has been "investigating a number of licensing options, and do expect to make the SpiderOak client code open source in the not-distant future

Hmm. Sigh. It is frustrating and saddening how often I encounter the same broken assumptions and nonconstructive disagreement on HN. I'm beginning to disengage. I have considered many of the specifics, but yes, I was applying a broad p

So, "wall" != "moat" Some castles had a wall and a moat. Anywho. I think there is a differences in kind here that is material to the discussion.

Respectfully disagree with the phrase "infighting". I believe healthy competition would be good for OSS.

Respectfully, maybe it should be a (friendly) competition. Competition motivates people. It's commonly accepted as one of the central drivers of capitalist markets. Perhaps if competition were injected in open source projects in some f

I'm vegan. Actually. If you do some research on the topic, I'm confident that you'll find that the air quotes were not out of order. The International Court of Justice (a body of the U.N.), Australia, and New Zealand are amo

It's important to bear witness. It's important to not look away.

True, but the markets prices assets at "Net Present Value" and often has long time horizons for their calculations. Think about an insurance company's portfolio. It will need assets to balance against liabilities which includ

I agree a discussion of a kind is occurring. My reply was specific to the comment it addressed, in that, the comment did not fully engage with my initial comment and instead cherry picked one part of it. A more fully formed response, much l

When Facebook forces a user to opt-out it's acceptable to denounce their actions. How is the Pocket example different? One of my biggest, if not my biggest, complaint about the OSS community it the lack of sympathy toward non technical

It might be. But what about the discussion? Is focusing on a native mail application not inline with their mission statement, given all the privacy issues of late? And your point doesn't address the issue of implementation. Firefox is

If this was an open source "project", rather than a "foundation" whose mission is to build a better web for its users, I'd say it was their call and that's the beauty of OSS. This is not that. This is another d

Or not even geniuses, just talented individuals. A very small percentage of people have the luxury to do 1) what they enjoy and are motivated by or 2) what they are good at. We are all, as a society, worse off when we keep massive swaths of
