I'm still confused about the paranoia around AGPL. If MongoDB is AGPL, why does everyone else throw a shit fit? Despite its faults, MongoDB is still massively popular, so I assume it's used at many enterprises. Also, side note: ca

I'm honestly confused why they didn't just postpone TGIF and then ignore the election. Just say someone got sick or something. Let employees deal with the results themselves and move on.

It's weird that they go on and on about how traditional Enterprise approaches suck, but they then offer SurveyMonkey Enterprise as a market opportunity. How are they different?

Thanks for correcting! Good to know! AmeriSpeak seems to have national representation, so I can only assume it was drawn randomly throughout the nation.

Thanks for the detail and the link! I was perhaps a bit naive and continue being so... It feels as though the issues you listed seem solvable? As in, the work to create a distro & craft a community that solves the above problems is work

I do think it's great, but I'm worried that as Kotlin grows, so does Jetbrains hold on IntelliJ and the IDE market. IMO, any change that benefits IntelliJ should theoretically be applicable to NetBeans. Maybe it's already thi
