Totally agree. And even better, we put your quote about Chris his quote on there together with you HN profile :) See https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/commit/7eb4ced6... and https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/commit/b9342fd5...
(if you'll get in trouble for this please say so here or via [email protected] and I'll remove it ASAP)
Wow dude, not only is using someone's quote on your website without consent pretty unclassy, using their employer to add legitimacy and make it seem like they're speaking on behalf of the company is just not ok at all.
Thanks cluenerf, this wasn't as funny as I thought yesterday. Using their employer is not cool. I've removed it . Thanks for helping me realize. I removed it https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/commit/5398cb57...
I think you should wait, get permission from both and put it. You have put Sachin's company name and position also...
Yeah, in hindsight we should have asked permission. I thought it was funny but this was over the edge. I removed it https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/www-gitlab-com/commit/5398cb57...
Just to be clear, I asked the person that was quoted what he thought about it as I posted it and he seemed pretty relaxed https://twitter.com/sachinag/status/576145655120277504 but I still thought it was better to remove it.
That you haven't yet is mindboggling.
