Curious...
Are you trying to argue that DVDs are NOT a dying medium?
I ask because that's exactly the opposite of what I see.
They want this to win, they need it to run on UNIX & BSD.
Seriously? Linux is a very small fraction of the desktop market and (other than OSX) any other UNIX or BSD is a very small fraction of that.
They don't need BSD support to win anything other than friendship.
The Year of the Linux Desktop is upon us!

1) Golfer wacks ball + rocks with club.
2) Club produces sparks that burn for up to one second igniting surrounding brush.
3) Golfer ignores smoking brush and walks off after his ball.
Makes sense to me!
According the the article:
Steve Concialdi, a captain with the Orange County Fire Authority, in Irvine, said that in both incidents, golfers using 3-irons with titanium-alloy heads had said they hit the ground and created sparks that started the fires.
So you're 2 out of 3.
Supporting argument, if you're swinging a golf club you're not looking at the ground to see what happened to the club, you're looking down the fairway to see what happened to the ball.

When I look at that list, I start to think that "living fossils" have large repetitive genomes. I looked up an article on the mitochondrial genome of the chambered nautilus, and I got the impression that more than anticipated repetition was found.

So you're saying Bitcoin makes it even easier to be a complete idiot?
Perhaps I'm misreading your analogy.
And yes... I'm being facetious, it's kind of my thing.
And Kosovo was an autonomous region in Serbia for hundreds of years. How many bombs did USA and its vassals drop on Yugoslavia to change that?
Unless there have been mass executions of Russian ethnic civilians in Crimea that I've missed, it's not really a fair comparison is it?

Alas, I bow my head and obey.
I read the article once, the bastard then turned around and burned my house to the ground, held my family as hostages and blew up the nearest power station.
They haven't kept entirely silent. They put a post on the issue up here: https://github.com/blog/1800-u...
And for those too lazy to actually read, the CEO appear to completely agree with their now former employee, serious misconduct by the founder in question and the wife is no longer allowed in the building.
This weekend, GitHub employee Julie Horvath spoke publicly about negative experiences she had at GitHub that contributed to her resignation. I am deeply saddened by these developments and want to comment on what GitHub is doing to address them.
We know we have to take action and have begun a full investigation. While that’s ongoing, and effective immediately, the relevant founder has been put on leave, as has the referenced GitHub engineer. The founder’s wife discussed in the media reports has never had hiring or firing power at GitHub and will no longer be permitted in the office.
GitHub has grown incredibly fast over the past two years, bringing a new set of challenges. Nearly a year ago we began a search for an experienced HR Lead and that person came on board in January 2014. We still have work to do. We know that. However, making sure GitHub employees are getting the right feedback and have a safe way to voice their concerns is a primary focus of the company.
As painful as this experience has been, I am super thankful to Julie for her contributions to GitHub. Her hard work building Passion Projects has made a huge positive impact on both GitHub and the tech community at large, and she's done a lot to help us become a more diverse company. I would like to personally apologize to Julie. It’s certain that there were things we could have done differently. We wish Julie well in her future endeavors.

Well it's clear why you posted that as anonymous.
I'm so confused!
