Why is there a limit on password length for a Weebly account? How are you storing passwords?

C extensions because something you wanted wasn't in go? Are you using cgo to build?

I wonder how many lines of code they ended up with afterward, although admittedly lines of code is a pretty silly metric. I think it is useful in orders of magnitude when describing the size of a project, 100 lines, 1,000 lines, 10,000 lines, 100,000 lines all speak volumes about effort. So I guess what I'm wondering if you got about a roughly similar sized code base or significant change difference?

It's cool, and this is a nearly useless comment, but the logo looks to much like an alien out of a Whitley Strieber "non-fiction" story. A little creepy I'm saying. Gitlab needs some branding design love.

I think it goes both ways. Younger engineers need to not avoid hiring old people because of fear of being a culture misfit and older engineers need to stop being self-conscious of their age all the time. Both can be a little bit more flexible and learn more about what other people like and appreciate the diversity that different ages can bring the workspaces. Both sides need to realize that the generalizations are all unrealistic. Young engineers aren't running around with pacifiers in their mouth pissing all over the floor and older people aren't losing their dentures in the snack area and falling asleep at their desk every day at 2pm dreaming about retirement. I say that as an engineer nearing my 40's.

I'm not sure why being #1 is so important. Who cares where our position is in the ranks as long as we are happy with our state. If we aren't happy we can make improvements, but again it's not a race so how we compare to others doesn't really seem significant unless we are far behind. I suppose the real significance is the trends, but I guess that doesn't strike at the heart strings of the common person as losing at some newspaper editor's arbitrary rules for a game nobody knew we were playing.

Does confusion impact the conclusion at all?

What is a less dramatic interpretation?

> ...the results of GitHub's independent investigation unequivocally confirm this and we are prepared to fight any further false claims on this matter to the full extent of the law.

Seems like a legal threat to Horvath if she speaks up about this again.

That's a tough problem. Outside of human moderation I don't have any idea. I'm glad you're aware of the problem though and are working on it. You guys work hard and we pay you nothing!

I feel like many men sometimes aren't aware of how little they help around the house with chores and taking care of the children, so I am proactive and plan stuff with my wife. I don't wait for her to ask me. That isn't dysfunctional.

There's also a lot of process in families. Some you can automate now, like paying the bills. Some processes are routines. Getting up, getting our child dressed, walking her to school, picking her up, taking her to her after school activities. Doing her homework with her.

There's also process with checking things around the house. Checking the fire alarms regularly, scheduling dentist appointments, making plans for seeing family. These are all processes.

The whole original article came off as ignorance and out of touch. As someone with an academic background in Anthropology and Sociology the author doesn't seem to understand what culture is or how hierarchy and unbalanced power relationships in the office place work. It's not a very sophisticated treatment of the topic in any regard. And in that vein, my opinion is that as long as the times are good and you're not hiring a bunch of dickhead managers your culture will be fine. If you take your culture to mean don't hire old people because they don't play the video games your 20 somethings do then your shit is fucked. In the end, when things go bad in the business, culture will sour.

Wells didn't have a recording device, so to perfectly record such large, articulate and complicated back and forths in a conversation probably involved some ghostwriting from memory on Well's part. It was a different time.

I simply commented on the evidence of dangers from smoke on open fires. I haven't anything else to say. If the comment doesn't apply to you feel free to ignore it.
