Exactly. > If there's anything I want Gitlab to copy from GitHub, it's the opinionated decision making of what to show and when to show it. Thing is, that will never happen. The project has already sprawled out of control and i

GitHub is popular because it allows developers to connect the tools they want to use to their repository. Some people find having everything in one package convenient, but the truth is there are better tools for most everything GitLab does.

They are also paying people to Tweet. That's the only way for people to get a discount.

None of the things you listed are focused on usability, which is what OP complained about. Liking some isolated features of a product doesn't mean it's easy to use/understand or well-designed.

Thing is it’s not even an exodus. It’s just a few thousand repos. And they aren’t even prepared to handle that. If there actually was a mass migration GitLab would completely fall over. I’m sure that would give folks a lot of confidence in

Yeah. This reeks of desperate and exaggerated marketing to me. Which is pretty much par for the course when it comes to anything GitLab says. As others have said, support for two platforms was added. And GitHub was already supported. Guess

This is pretty much par for course when it comes to GitLab marketing. Made up headlines that can't be supported with facts.

I'd like to point out that GitLab is not independent. They are owned by investors, including Google Ventures. So anyone who thinks they're giving GitHub/MS the finger by migrating their repos, please be ready to move everythi

If the outcome is that they're adding more features to make the product better who cares? That's competition functioning as intended.

Philosophy is important. The fact that you're even asking that question indicates a deep ignorance of the history of ideas and thought. It's also slightly absurd because empiricism is itself a philosophy. Empiricism, as a method,

Interesting. If I was a sailor hundreds of years ago and witnessed something like that I might think it was a merman.

Good luck finding a counterparty.

You're definitely not alone. It makes sense on an intuitive level. Even when you "close" your eyes, you can't stop yourself from seeing. You're simply staring at the inside of your eyelids. EDIT: I had not heard of

No problem. Atlassian actually acquired Bitbucket in 2010 and then released Stash (later rebranded as Bitbucket Server) in 2012.

It'd be nice if you could link to the studies so we can check them out. I've seen a decent amount of criticism on this topic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit-association_test#Crit...

> bitbucket.org is just Atlassian's copy of BitBucket, which you can buy from them and hose yourself. This is incorrect. Bitbucket Cloud and Server are two completely separate codebases. On the other hand, GitHub Enterprise is basic

Reasonable interpretation. Nice research. I wish the author had expressed what they meant more clearly. That phrase is poorly deployed.

I'd guess that "wore" should be printed as "were". And further that it's intended to be a figurative use of the word meant to convey that he disliked people who were stiff or formal, like a crinoline. Disliking

So will the wealthy be disproportionately affected by issues with concentration? That seems to be the implication of your statement. However, I'm also unconvinced that the ability to concentrate (above an average level, at least) has h
