mattrick··on GitHub Is Down
I can understand this sentiment, but a lot of projects and companies (especially startups) want something that "just works" and not something that they'll need to invest resources into maintaining. Something like this can happen on your self-hosted git server and you won't have an SLA or anything to fall back on.
mattrick··on Pantone 448 C
This made me curious which projects on Github use this color, and it seems pretty common as a shadow color in Material design: https://github.com/search?q=%22%23412f1c%22&type=Code

ISPs already have to submit to federal licensing. They still seem to be doing well for themselves.

mattrick··on Chromium: FTP resources will be marked “Not Secure”
IMO, "Not Secure" means a lot more to the layperson than "Not Encrypted". They're trying to push HTTPS adoption by punishing websites that don't use it.

Sure "Not Encrypted" is more accurate, but not everybody is going to know what that means.

mattrick··on Outraged about the Google diversity memo?
> I believe for example if it wasn’t for biases and unequal opportunities, then the higher ranks in science and politics would be dominated by women. Hence, aiming at a 50-50 representation gives men an unfair advantage. I challenge you to provide any evidence to the contrary.

The burden of proof is on him. You can't make a claim and then ask the other party to provide evidence against it.
