I think you mean "epithets."

I like anything that gets the homeless some help, but that zoom-on-mouseover on the photos is creepy.

What a dehumanizing experience.

You send some law enforcement officers out to track down the people selling spaces. Shouldn't be difficult, since they're advertising their location right in the app.

Good. The idea of a couple guys in Italy making money on trades of public parking spaces in SF baffles me. I assume they're not paying any taxes back to the city that maintains the spaces. How does one possibly defend this?

I couldn't get past the "preamble." This writing style is just impenetrable. Wordy for no reason, with pointless pop culture references and annoying clipart & captions that fail to amuse.

"What every programmer should know about SEO"

Yeah, no.

The author claims this is the "original":

> ElectroPortis is a Windows version of ElectroPaint, the only screensaver. This is the real deal. It is not a clone, nor a reimplementation, nor a product of manual reverse engineering. It was made by running the original binary through a custom MIPS to C decompiler.

but later, says that it's the OpenGL version and links to these words:

> During my time at SGI I rewrote Electropaint to use OpenGL instead of IrisGL and it wasn't quite the same afterwards (I removed the control UI since the panels toolkit wasn't making the journey and I must have broken the random seed...).

Wouldn't be such a pedant normally, but if you're going to make such a fuss about it being the "original," don't contradict yourself on the same page...

Julie herself says she's "pretty satisfied" with this post. I still consider myself one of her supporters, and I felt satisfied enough by this post that I recreated my GitHub account. Next time give it an hour before calling everyone insane.

Are you saying that good engineers can't have a sense of humor?

It's telling that nobody would attach their name to the article. Horvath's already publicly laughed it off.

When it's the CEO who you have a problem with, how do you escalate beyond him?

> Look at her now, you think that there is any company on this planet which is going to risk the same process that was done to Github on a maximum mediocre engineer? I don't think so.

She already has another job with &yet. I'm curious though, what makes you think she's a "maximum mediocre engineer"?
