This might not be the case here. As the OP theorized, they were already on the way out of the team, so why not use them to fill up the PIP quotas?

The manager might not be incompetent, but they sure are an asshole

Just wanted to say Discord is awesome!

I didn't play on-line for years, last time I did regularly, the standard for voice communication was Ventrilo/Teamspeak. When I first used Discord a couple of months ago, I was just shocked. It has a decent webapp. I can create my own server for free. It takes less than a minute to get going. It just works.

Truly amazing work, keep up

As a quite disappointed user of Gitlab (due to issues raised here, e,g, CE vs EE and the Ruby infrastructure), has anyone had experience with both? I understand that Phabricator is a more "complete" solution, but how do they compare in the core features that they both share?

Also, do they pride themselves for writing this in PHP? I consider this an anti-feature, but this might be highly opinionated.

As a consumer, I don't like the direction where streaming services are headed - many small services with limited content (original or not).

I've been a Netflix customer for years now (I also had Hulu Plus, cancelled it due to their then-horrendous interface). While in the past I was very impressed with Netflix's selection, I now find it... meh, despite all the original content. When I pay Netflix, it's not for one, two or ten specific shows, no matter how much I liked House Of Cards or Orange Is The New Black. It's for a big, diverse, easy-to-explore library, in which I can discover new content and I always have something to watch.

And as much as I like HBO programs, there is no chance I'll pay 15$/m for their streaming service, especially after I've already watched most of the content! I understand everybody wants a piece of that streaming revenue pie, but as a consumer, I can't but feel that this situation is bad for me.

I strongly agree.

Code is read from top to bottom, and finding out that a method uses a block after reading through most of it, is confusing, whereas `&block` in the method signature clarifies that this method will do something with a block.

The performance hit, as bad as it may be, is not something that should be a concern in many programs. After all, you are using Ruby...

Windows 10 is obviously consumer focused. Consumers don't care about containers
