You seem to imply that since Trump "talks straight", he doesn't flip-flop?
If that's what you're implying, it couldn't be more inaccurate; he has sharply contradicted himself countless times, straight-up denying things he's documented as saying (on TV, Twitter, etc.)
> So I don't think interests will ever align to create a new registry.
Possibly not soon, at least from a technical perspective, but I could definitely see a PR fiasco (security, bias, etc.) causing a loss of confidence in its stewardship.
And I don't think it'd be that big of a disruption if it were to happen; for the hypothetical case of Facebook+Yarn, they're already proxying to NPM, so they could easily continue to do so while also accepting packages that are Yarn-only.
It's basically free advertising for them, this account has 0 comments and has submitted 100% from risingstack.com -- 12 posts in 2 months. It's obvious they're just trying to drum up traffic (i.e. business).

Disclaimer: I haven't used any of the 3 extensively, but I do play around in them from time-to-time. The main difference to me is that ST comes as a bare-metal editor with the potential to do just about anything, while Atom and VSC come with some built-in features that just make life easier and the ability to extend it further.
A concrete example would be VSC's git support; out-of-the-box, it's a full-featured git client, and even if you prefer the git cli for most operations like I do, VSC automatically reads the .git directory and then creates a tab that shows your current changelist (modified, staged) with a visual diff of the files. Also allows you to easily do the common stuff like checkout a branch, commit, push, etc.
If you're a big fan of ST, you probably won't like the alternatives unless you have some frustrations with ST, because ST is probably more powerful overall, but compared to Atom & VSC, the learning curve is also quite a bit higher.
Stored without a decimal for free, seems like it'd be up to the receiver to interpret it correctly.
What if you receive it in JS?
JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(1))
> 1
Ok, so it parses an int for free too... thus my confusion.
Regardless, you can still override anything it does considering the second argument to both `JSON.parse()` and `JSON.stringify()` allows you to provide your own function for handling the logic as you see fit.
Underscore CLI looks interesting as well, though I haven't personally had much of a chance to play with it. It does require NodeJS, which might be a deal-breaker for some, but if it's already in your toolchain then it might come in handy.
They've also been spamming reddit pretty hard. As a mod of a programming sub, I've had to add their domain to the automod spam list for post spam, and then report a user or two to /r/spam for comment spam (and are now shadowbanned) . Kind of surprised to learn that they were YC.
Google hates anything that requires a human's touch, and per the article:
> Lately, the administrative load has consisted almost exclusively of abuse management.
They see Google Code as a time-sink, and they're probably right, and it's not surprising to me that they'd drop something that is no longer serving it's intended purpose, but instead has negative implications for their model. Keeping it going forward would require even more hands-on humans, so they scrap it.
As for the deep links, one of the Google Code devs did mention[1]:
> I work on Google Code, and we will be putting a service in place to redirect deep links to project homepages, issues, etc. to their new locations.
His comment also contains a link to a wiki with more information on how to opt-in to this service.
> Her time at Google was not spent working on any projects that produced notable success or revenue.
Her CV begs to differ: she was VP of Search Products and User Experience, and then held key roles in Google Search, Google Images, Google News, Google Maps, Google Books, Google Product Search, Google Toolbar, iGoogle, and Gmail.
As a mod of /r/javascript (for about 6 months now), I'm flattered. The sub really is easy to mod though; yes, we get a couple off-topic & spammy posts every once in awhile, but by-and-large, the JS community there runs itself really well.
I've also personally known several who got canned for taking too much "unlimited" vacation time, even though the amount they took was far from extraordinary.
Foobar2000 is a great project, it's tremendously efficient (I think it uses 10-20mb when running), and the plugin feature allows you to extend it however you wish.
IMO it has a different place than GIMP, and they actually co-exist on my system. GIMP is more of a PhotoShop clone, whereas Paint.NET is more of a PSP clone and/or MSPaint on steroids. I've found that PS/GIMP are usually best for creating a production-quality image from scratch or for touching up full-color photos, but Paint.NET is best for doing informal graphical work (mock-ups, screenshot annotations, etc.)
> If your only form of communication is random updates/photos from them that you don't actively seek, then you don't really care in the first place do you?
Well that's a rather hasty judgement...
Firstly, I didn't say it was my only communication. Secondly, it does a lot to help fill in the gaps between meetings/conversations.
> Nobody is too busy for a short phone call once in awhile.
And nobody said phone calls are the only -- or even preferred -- means of communication.
