    An excellent thread from . My feelings on this are slightly less complicated: it's a knuckle-headed move by Redis Labs that will likely undermine both its community and its business.

    I have complex feels around the commons clause and whats happening now with Redis Labs. To get things out up front - I’m not a user of Redis Labs. I support peoples choices to license their work how they want, and to build their companies how they want.

    Using rust on illumos with DTrace + mdb is so nice. Was able to see a pointer referring to freed memory via libumem. Went back and read the docs for CString, and found the section I missed the first time that explains the behavior. Now I really want deeper integration.

    Brilliant presentation, thank you! And I must admit, for me the 'Turkmenistan' metaphor for Go was the most surprising and funny thing I ever heard in a talk, given that I was born and raised in that country. That was spot on.

    That six-year-old is now thirteen -- and things haven't meaningfully changed.

    Just lost a game of H.O.R.S.E. to the six-year-old on a shot that required me to fart while taking the shot. WTF?!

    This is my litmus test for an open source community: how do they react to a well-reasoned analysis of a defect? Some shine (e.g. RethinkDB, Matterhorn) -- and some stink. Lasting impressions, either way.

    I know firsthand how many frustrating and poorly-considered requests, suggestions, and questions people get on OSS projects. Still, it's extremely frustrating to be on the other side, submitting a detailed analysis of a major issue and a patch to fix it and get blown off.
