I phrased that badly, these aren't individuals inside the company but people we play against or play with if we don't have enough for full teams.

It's not only Twitter or politics. I've been playing some Heroes of the Storm as team building with my company and when we are not a full team the toxicity can get intense, with some people going far beyond just in match flaming to harassing with death and rape threats in direct messages long after the match is over.

Mind you this in a no-stakes free to play game and the phenomenon seems common. Sometimes I think our culture is not ready for a substantial part of our communication not to be face to face.

It still baffles me that the official response from the IOTA foundation is that the vulnerability was inserted intentionally as copy-protection.

And even more baffling that their flagship partner Bosch does not seem to have problem with this practice.

> The first explanation was that the flaw was intentional—that it was meant to serve as a form of “copy protection.” If anyone used this code in their own work, he said, the IOTA developers would be able to exploit the flaw and damage other systems that were using the hash function.

Is this a common practice in the cryptocurrency community? Seems sort of pointless to put flaws and bugs in an open source project as copy protection instead of just keeping it closed source.

This article purposefully misrepresents React in favor of the author's own framework Binding.scala, all the criticism are either superficial like class being className (which is a good thing because JSX is not HTML) or has nothing to do with React like JavaScript's dynamic typing system and handling of asynchronous updates.

He also seems to believe that React is framework when it's a library, if his knowledge of React is so shallow that he didn't even read the first sentence on the React website I can't take his opinions on it seriously.

I don't like these kinds of articles which are only thinly veiled advertisements that do not offer any thoughtful criticisms, what I would really like is to hear from someone who has actually worked on a huge project which includes React and what troubles if any they ran into.
