As I wrote in this issue, I am exhausted. Microsoft has plenty of money to handle issues like this and chooses not to do so. I have spent hours now reaching out to GitHub in vain, tracking down people affected, and trying to figure out how

Thanks, I just find it wild that Microsoft appears wholly uninterested in policing what seems like a huge legal liability to their business. I’ll start reaching out to as many journalists as I can with what I’ve got. They seem a little over

I'm also curious about this. We were accepted into Stripe Atlas but too late – we ended up forming our company while on the waiting list and couldn't partake.

Watsi only funds its operations via tips. 100% of your non-tip donations go to funding treatments.

If your non-profit needs any help with any of the software side (that can be made open source) let me know and I'd be happy to see how I can help.

I don't think he understood the question. "For 30" sounds like he meant "$30 per hour" and not "on net 30 terms."
