I really hope this acquisition is good for the developer community. Also, I can’t help but notice the fact that Tom Preston-Werner, one of the co-founders of GitHub, had turned down an offer[0] from Microsoft 10 years ago and today they’ve announced the acquisition[1] by Microsoft. They really have come a full circle. Good luck to the team at GitHub!

I was curious, is Diaspora* used anywhere or by anyone?

Oh boy, so many users disliking Facebook in this thread.

> — a full one-third of my window is covered by a pop-over trying to get me to sign in or sign up for Facebook.

I get that John is clearly annoyed by a certain aspects of Facebook, but, I feel like it's unfair to say "Fuck Facebook" based on that. Facebook posts are primarily meant to be shared on the social network and not on the web. You can, of course, share it on the web, if the author of the post wishes to. But, Facebook has an amazing Notes features, which basically acts like a personalized blog. Long posts are meant to be shared via Notes and not the regular status update posts.

Check out this awesome note created by Kent Beck: https://www.facebook.com/notes/kent-beck/mastering-programmi...

They don't put a pop-over that takes up 1/3 of your page.

Also, I see a lot of people complaining about timesuck and how getting off of Facebook has improved their lives. How is any of it Facebook's fault? If anything, it means that it's a win for Facebook since they're providing good content that interests you, the user.

Also, stating that Facebook is trying to kill the open web is a bit ridiculous to say. Facebook's main sell is their content. They're not a search engine. They don't have to let non-Facebook users access their protected content. Yes, they do have a search engine that searches across the Facebook platform, but, you'd have to be a Facebook user in order to be able to search for it. Facebook got a lot of heat a few years ago for the lack of proper privacy features. Now, people complain about not having access to somebody else's content? There is no way everybody in this world can be satisfied.

Also, expecting Facebook to allow Internet Archive to index Facebook's content is unfair. Why should Facebook allow Internet Archive to index their protected content? The content is for the users to share with whoever they wish to share with, which may not necessarily be everybody in the world.

The slider at the bottom and the sign in/sign up/reset form are very well made. That's a good design. Good job!

What does this mean for Electron and other apps that depend on Electron?

I've been a Google Voice user since 2009, when it was initially launched. I absolutely love the product. It is perhaps the only Google product, beside Gmail, that I have been using on a daily basis since the past ~8 years. Initially I only used it for its voicemail functionality and later started using it as my secondary phone number and for international calling (Google Voice's international calling pricing is decent).

All these years, even though the product has had an outdated UI, I didn't mind using it, since, it has been functional and served it's purpose. Now that Google is starting to invest more resources into Google Voice, my only hope is that they don't kill any of the existing wonderful features. I love the product and it would be awesome if they don't add any kind of "social" aspect to a very functional and useful product.

I haven't received the iOS update yet, but, I'm really looking forward to it.

>I think Basecamp itself is mostly closed source, so they may have an advantage in building a business.

I think it's the exact opposite. Basecamp is mostly open source. Ruby on Rails is basically extracted from the Basecamp application. They've open sourced even their Trix Editor (https://github.com/basecamp/trix).

Getting rid of Flash on iOS was the best decision Apple had ever taken. It is a fact that Flash is a pretty unsecure platform. Companies should stop using flash and put an end to it mess.
