Microsoft has been contributing a ton to FOSS the last 5 or 6 years.

Their flagship programming language, .net, is fully OSS and runs best on Linux.

How do you see this as a slap on the wrist? He's facing disciplinary proceedings after the initial 90 day suspension.

79 coaches have resigned.

This feels like serious repercussions territory.

Same. This all feels so similar, but different at the same time. In a good way tho.

They largely believe they're the main characters in a universe created just for them by a super being.

Their belief that this is all planned is unshakable. Because the second that's in doubt, so is everything else they believe.

In order to believe in climate change, they have to stop being religious. That's a harder sell. So they stick their heads in the sand and pretend it's all a part of God's plan.

Holy shit, I totally remember them and trading cards in the 90s. Always wondered what happened with that, now I know.

That's our bar here? That someone who has put in years and years of hard Dev effort, every day, built up a community, took risks, etc, should just be happy he has food on the table?

Fuck that noise. I don't care if he's already s multi millionaire, he can charge whatever he wants, and we can choose to pay it or not. The man is running a business model here. He's not done weekend warrior FOSS hacker. He deserves to be paid for his efforts.

That's insane. How in the world do they rationalize that to themselves?

God damn, that's depressing to think about.

I mean, it's less about that and more about just calling out how stupid many of his decisions have been. What's wrong with pointing out stupid shit someone does in full view of the public like this?

Seems pretty fair since Musk is behaving like a douchebag

What? It was the easiest move I've ever made. Deleted a 13+ year old account. I'm loving it here. Fuck Reddit.
