Nope, it'll live on and the code will be available for all to see and study which means it'll end up being a case study or research material in a textbook or Masters or Phd thesis.

One day someone may try to make an emulator for IE5 and ES4 just to run jQuery (like we've seen done with the 6502 and C64).

I wonder if this competes with Qt or GTK?

The problem is when the push back is not standardized. I've seen bad code go through with comments like "we can deal with these things in a later PR or two" but then other code gets flagged for "it fixes one problem but it could fix three other things too" which increases scope. An inconsistent standard is better than no standard but it's just as frustrating.

In Canada too you can request all of the data that a company has on you. You just have to fill in a form or call the company and if they refuse you can contact the privacy office in your respective province or the federal privacy commision or just plain lawyer up.

Kinda sucks that they have to offer a commercial license, hopefully it doesn't turn into an Open Core-style development effort.

Fuck DRM. Seriously.

To echo others, the start of a great hack.

Yes which means I have to apply my own reasoning and ethical thinking.

Toxic workplace? I think so.

Impressed that someone is using LaTeX to write reports! Wish I could get my coworkers to do that ;p

Inspired by Panic Status Board and dismayed that it was not open source, I tried to create my own, in php (not sure if the code is floating out there somewhere) and man, it's bad to see such a great product go. Seriously, so good it inspires one to write better looking software.

I never understand why people choose MIT when they create something valuable and don't go for AGPL or GPL.

Looks good though :D

It would be better if we knew they weren't using it for evil.

Proof that technology is neutral and isn't all about freedom and ethics; will be avoiding anything published by them.

As mentioned, it already exists and it's not democratic and you can't complain about it or anything. Completely useless fascist censorship board.

This is why it's important for alternative companies to be started, ones that have ethics built in that won't bow to censorship.

Absolutely, I didn't learn this a few times because I expected the product I was freelancing on to be sold to multiple other clients meaning continued project work for me. But after a month and a half and using up some savings $$$ to pay the rent, I realized that just sticking to coding isn't enough and you have to really develop a sense of who will rip you off and who won't and insist on advanced payments or getting paid at the end of the day.

I remember reading about someone who would bill daily. If there were problems with $$ they just wouldn't work the next few days.

That's the growth mindset for you. Airbnb would be better if it were not profit-driven imo.

No, you.

IBM did a study on work spaces and how they affect productivity. It would be nice if universities did the same as a joint project of the Architecture and Computer Science departments but everyone seems to be interested in coding to get a job rather than studying these issues that are faced daily by millions of devs.

Awesome, excellent stuff.

can confirm, was forced off the sidewalk thanks to geese and the sidewalk was double-wide. they're real mean :/

Why not APNG?

Canadian govt apparently treats bitcoin as an asset. I wonder how that affects your taxes if the price goes lower than you bought it for; do you treat it as a depreciation in assets and are allowed to pay less tax?

Public utility doesn't mean no one gets paid. You're the one not being realistic.

why start a company when you can start a co-operative?

Proposal to Twitter: let us own you as a public utility and turn into a co-operative.

OpenWeb! :D
