Upvotes do not determine if information is true or not, and there's plenty of people out there who aren't the least bit concerned with whether or not HN upvotes them.
Tangentially, I don't think outsourcing is really that big of a deal. LOTS of companies do it, and it's easy to get bitten by it, but it's also easy to check over what they bring back, as well. I'm not trying to make a case for excusing this incident, as they could have very easily dedicated some dev time to quality check the code (if it's the code that they outsourced in the first place, which we don't know for sure or not) so there's really no excuse for it. People in the states outsource to india, people in india outsource to africa or south america, people in africa probably have some place they outsource to, maybe china or something. It's an economical oddity, not a moral dilemma, imo.
I mean, you don't see Ford putting out bounties on drunk hit'n'run drivers, and that's something that's cost thousands of lives.
How is this type of McCarthy PR acceptable?
DJI customers, what are your thoughts on this?
What's a language that's just always got your back in a situation? That's the F/A18.
Are people actually still this naive? Reading HN users makes me feel like I'm trapped in the 80s where the internet was a magical mystery that nobody really understood. It's about 40 years too late to just assume the average trash website is actually a meaningful statement about something, or a viable product of some sort.
99.9999999% are just junk. The big ones, you already know about.
Keep truckin, Travis.
Exactly what context is this supposed to be?
Obviously the names are tongue in cheek jabs. There's no language called Auschwitz, afaik, and even if there was, it would have as much right to exist as Java or Python or whatever.
You don't get to tell people what to name things just because you're offended. You get to be offended, that's it.
