There are too many names on that list - not to contact, but to trust. To everyone that you give secret advance notice, you're potentially handing a zero-day.

Jonathan Blow wrote an excellent article on the text-based entity file format he developed for The Witness, which was designed to be (more) mergeable: http://the-witness.net/news/2011/12/engine-tech-concurrent

Okay, so you've backed down from "You'd think she would have disclosed that" to "I would prefer she prefaced the article with that". I'm content.

> You would think someone commenting on such an important and controversial story in tech like this would fully disclose that she is in-fact friends with Emil and worked with him? She did! You quoted it in your post!

Ah, given that context, that makes more sense / comes off a little less nefarious. I think it was mostly the references to forgetting an anniversary, trying to repair the relationship with a heart-to-heart by candlelight, etc., that t

This was really funny up until the prolonged domestic violence joke at the end, which kinda threw me off. Product of its times, I guess.

I'm sure you know, but you can just clone from bitbucket, then push it to github. You keep all your history and everything. I can dig that there's friction, though.

What parts of the overall ecosystem do you consider a necessity for private repos?

Luckily you're a programmer, and can easily change a python script!

Big O is an upper bound, little o is a lower bound. Big theta means both an upper and lower bound.

I sort of agree with you - "concern troll" applies more to OP than this post, upon reflection - but let me explain my reasoning. Lots of people have explained elsewhere in the thread why this is a completely trivial issue. I don&

If Rust is widely adopted, and this actually becomes a problem for anyone, someone will submit a pull request to remove it, it will be debated, and probably pass. On the other hand, its presence in the current codebase will tend to attract

Then make sure that's a stipulation in your RFP next time you're commissioning a compiler. One of the nice things about open source work is that we get to have a little fun with it. Side note, I would expect someone named "r

The company that $parent is the founder of. Which, if you google for, you discover that their page is titled "Blog Logo" and contains no content. Check back in a week or so, I guess.
