The meta point here is that just in OSS folks assume that the code has been reviewed since it's open, but the reality is that unless someone actually does you really don't know. The popularity of a project doesn't mean there aren't fatal flaws.

Or if we all get together and decide a company shouldn't behave in a certain way, that's another option. We call that government regulation when we everyone gets together to do that. You can think of it as voting with your money, just without the money part.

> it’s one thing to just be bad at your job and you leak a bunch of data and oops, you didn’t notice that a hacker was in your system like a Kofax for months.

Na, I'm tired of these excuses too. Maybe jail is too extreme in this case, but being sloppy isn't ok. Or not supporting MFA when you're dealing with financial data.

Joyent offers this as I recall, however it's only a scale up, I don't think they can scale down afterwards.

What were the points that made Critique amazing?

BitBucket doesn't have a large OSS community, but it does have a lot of larger business that need Jira and Confluence integration. So it could be worth it, just the user base isn't as visible as GH.

Boeing does this with their seats in the factory too, they put a picture of a Lamborghini on the seats since they cost the same.

EDIT: Yes, it's hard to believe a seat costs the same as a Lamborghini, that's exactly why they put the picture on it. This is mainly for the first class seats, though rows apparently cost about the same too.

It doesn't if users are working around it.

> Yes he should.

Why can't we program our <something> support departments to act on information they're given? Why do we need to program these departments like they're half AI zombies?

Fair enough, but why is there no standard shell or alternative interpreter?

wow, so we're against villains now?

That makes sense, and you actually do see RAIDs fail like that in the real world sometimes even on non-SSDs.

I would say no, you'd want the whole disk to fail then so you can just replace it vs. it getting smaller over time, which would make capacity planning pretty complex.
