Luckily though, they have a history of completing quality software to back up such an attitude. That's way better then the countless shitty projects with websites that push the very limits of jQuery and have beautiful CSS, but are only half-functional at best and riddled with security holes and have an obnoxious focus on spreading the word via facebook and a dozen other social sites.
The fact that the founder left Github tells me he and/or his wife did, in fact, harass Horvath. He was likely told by the legal department that he doesn't have a leg to stand on if shit hit the fan, and if I was Horvath I would be seriously considering suing. TFA says the investigator found no signs of legal wrongdoing, but I wouldn't be surprised if the investigator was blowing smoke. The fact that the founder's not receiving a more severe punishment is a big problem to me.
Lawyers aren't just to argue in court, they also are there to tell you when a case is going to cost you huge amounts of money, and investors really hate that, and advise you which of those battles need to be fought. The only thing his `resignation' says is that he wasn't valuable enough to fight for.
Are you implying that the term itself has no meaning, because I can promise you that it does. Perhaps you are rejecting the notion of meritocracy instead? Well then you're just an idiot and should go complain about it on Tumblr. Or maybe you are claiming that Silicon Valley is not a meritocracy, in which case your comment is pointless, because the actual state of reality does not mean that something cannot be striven for.
Don't worry, the utterly worthless louts in the Humanities do this every once in a while. For instance, back in the nineties they published tonnes of garbage noting that E=mc^2 was a `sexed equation' or how various scientific theories were part of the patriarchy. They see have degrees in tinewasting and circlejerking subjects like Sociology and fancy themselves fit to comment on any of the real sciences (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_wars for more info). They usually end up crushed under the inanity of their own drivel though.
I'm sure Google, or anyone else who will incur a million dollar bill power bill increase for every change of O(2n) to O(2.01n), is perfectly capable of hacking optimizations in themselves.
Because you are the guy always going on about the `space nutters', and I didn't get to insult you last time you posted, so I figured now would be a good time.
Of course not, but how does that matter? Corporations are evil. CEOs are evil. We need communism NOW so that we can disappear anyone who disagrees and finally have a free society. You need to go read your Das Kapital and take a good hard look at your life before it's too late.
Yeah, that's fucking terrible and all, but I can't imagine how that might be relevant to the discussion at hand. Was it just your way of saying `Down with all corporation!' or what?
No. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you aren't a religious idiot who wants creation `scientists' on the show. This is not a university lecture where it is his job to spoon fed you every last detail. It is an introduction to various topics, and if you are interested, you can go learn more on your own. It functions well (or at least the original did) in enabling people, particularly children, to know that concepts even exist and be able to ask questions about them.
Actual education is not something so low effort that you can get if from a one-hour show with thirteen episodes.
He was convicted of insider trading and embezzlement, and some computer crime I don't really remember. Whatever it was, it was not relevant and used dishonestly by the crybaby idiot in TFA to imply that it was in the context of copyright. Reading this emotion-appealing hyperbole collection makes me kinda regret trying to defend copyright just yesterday.... I hate both sides of this `debate'.
Fuck evolution and fuck nature. I don't give a shit how species development works or if it will continue to work at all. Intelligence has made evolution obsolete. If you think it's so important, then feel free to line yourself up to die.
Why is it wrong to for them to make a profit? I understand and sympathize with the criticisms of the entertainment industries which constantly pushing for harsher laws, but the other major side of this fight expects it to be a charity. I don't see (very many) people seriously demanding car companies start selling cars at cost.
I don't know about these `artists' of which you speak, but I personally have never gotten any nutrition or shelter from the bubbly feeling I get when I do something nice on the internet.
Scientists that give their work away for free are almost invariably funded by the government. May I assume that you have no objection to supporting movie studios by taxes? Of course, to match this completely, the government should also have some say in what gets funded, just as with scientific research.

If you choose to not have children because you can't afford them then you're still poor, which makes you a loser and you have no right to be smug.

Are you retarded? For the trillionth time, OpenBSD had nothing to do with OpenSSL until they forked it? Learn how to fucking read.

Not really. The time cube guy attaches his name to drivel too.
I've seen documentation that could have passed for postmodern Marxist criticism before.

LOL, kill yourself.

He does not have a valid point and his post is flamebait.

The new Opera is just a butchered Chrome with less features. Please don't use crappy knock-offs made by sellouts.
You refuse to pay what the asker wants and download it without paying anyway, and somehow the RIAA is the glutton. Riiiiiiight~
So what you want is instant gratification because you are unable to wait patiently for six months. Okay, fair enough.

Have you ever heard of something called `insurance'? You should look it up, it's pretty nifty.
