   As others have said, the rational thing to do would be pro-rata dilution. Your real problem though is why didn't they ask for that in the first place. It looks like they want to squeeze you out and you should have a transparent discuss

   How is that worse than trusting that the top 2 BTC mining pools aren't colliding? I'll take a semi-centralized system with respected public figures as advisors over a theoretically decentralized system that is actually ran by a fe

   Thanks Jim for participating here. Can you explain the links between MaydayPAC and CounterPAC, their degree of cooperation and what makes them different? Thanks! PS: Congrats for the hard work you're doing.

   That sounds straight up from the TV show "The Leftovers" in which there's a nihilist cult that paints things in white!

   I think it has to do mostly with the image they want to have in the developer community. Plus, watching a HD video shot in a Theater like ours is arguably more enjoyable and impactful than something shot in a studio. You can check this as a

   Couldn't agree more! We really hope to be able to get them involved in the conference. FYI, Chris Lattner does speak at LLVM community events so it's not unheard of.

    I think you shouldn't have too much to worry about because all international flights over this area will probably get re-routed for a while in the next few hours/days.

    Not so sure about this. I was at the conference and captured the exact wording from Urs, "We don't really use MapReduce anymore" ( https://twitter.com/sylvinus/status/481864384981913601 )

    MRQ is heavily inspired by RQ to which we switched from Celery ( http://www.slideshare.net/sylvinus/why-and-how-pricing-assis... ) However it is a complete rewrite because we felt we couldn't add gevent support and

    We are writing more docs now and putting a small website up, currently they are in the README. We provide support by email, there are already a few third-party users using it in production.

    I've worked 4+ years with Celery on 3 different projects and found it incredibly difficult to manage, both from the sysadmin and the coder point of view. With that experience, we wrote a task queue using Redis & gevent that puts vi

    I'd be curious to know how he transfers his files out of the DOS machine then. I can't remember ever using an USB key with DOS. Floppy disks maybe?

    Looks like pointless complaints to me. You're losing confidence in CC because their process for reporting security issues is okay, but not perfect? They did the hard thing, which was emailing users about a "breach" that may

    As discussed more than 1 year ago ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4346303 ), the (very) hard times they had signing people up, with constant posts on HN without much effect, should have been a strong indicator people d

    Really disappointing move. If you don't trust your developers, maybe you shouldn't have hired them in the first place. Our team loves HipChat, and they will probably end up feeling the opposite because of this. Please provide a wa

    Is this on their hosting or DNS offerings? Given that Gandi's reputation is outstanding, your experience seems quite odd. Can you elaborate?
