regret all you want. this is NOT a gender issue. It's a classic disgruntled employee issue. it happens all the time, just with less media attention.

It's amazing to see how many people here are commenting and voting on emotion. The facts are: 1) We have an ex-employee who is very disgruntled. 2) Said employee has laid some serious allegations regarding genderism 3) No allegation is

I could be wrong, but I believe originally the ex-employee claimed the un-equalism's were due to the fact she was female. As we know now, that's a load of bs... but the media is still running with it.

It won't be the last time an ex-employee paints a target on GitHub. A better and stronger response was needed here.

I'm rather disappointed in GitHub allowing one of their founders and top executives to be run out of town over a wrongful controversy contrived by a disgruntled ex-employee with a bone to pick.

If you are at the point where you are contemplating building your own dev-tool-everythings... then you've gone very wrong. Let the dev-tool guys make dev-tools, they are much better at it (it's all they do). Instead figure out how

aka. a pissing match to show "they are too big for any standard industry tools". Really speaks to the level of (non)expertise employed at FB.

Linear codebase history? Why even use Git then... that's SVN stuff... we use Git now-a-days for a reason...

That sounds like either poor Sys Admin'ing and/or poor documentation... SCM should not have "clutter" in it, otherwise you wind up with an all-day download of 54GB of dead or useless garbage. The Kernel's repo is o

unlikely. they probably have a very dirty repo with tons of binaries, images, blah blah blah. It's highly unlikely they actually wrote 8GB of code, and the 46GB .git directory will be littered with binary blob changes, etc. This is rea

I hope everyone realizes this is not 54GB of code, but in fact, is more likely a very public showing of very poor SCM management. They likely have tons of binaries in there, many many full codebase changes (whitespace, tabs, line endings, e

Just pointing out it's not that difficult to "roll your own" linux distro. It'll take you an afternoon if you haven't done it before... and you can very well choose to keep using sysvinit if you want (my personal di

I think the website is missing the legal disclaimer "Paid for by Canonical (because we're bitter)".

The Canonical fanboys are just upset they lost out on their inferior technology and now are trying to do everything possible to stall it. systemd is unquestionably a big step forward, Upstart is only a step to the side. There is a reason th

I 100% support eat24 in their decision. Facebook is ridiculous now. I requested my "facebook archive" 2 days ago and still have not received my email confirmation with the download link. As soon as I do, I'm deleting my faceb
