For most people, the thirteen years from age 19 to 32 involves a great deal of maturity and in many respects I imagine the same applies to him. But if he started out as somewhat unscrupulous, what evidence do we have that the pressures of having to appease investors is going to change that in a positive way when it comes to people's private information? Especially considering the kind of revenue that data can generate.

Maybe in business practice, not necessarily character. Just look at Trump. (Not to pick on him, but I don't find Trump to be practicing the etiquette I would associate with a man in his position. As for Zuckerberg, I'm not saying he's childish either. I'm just questioning your point.)

Here's a good test: Do you want a text editor, or do you want something that's close to an IDE?

Atom/VS Code exist to be IDE-y, not as thought experiments on text editors in the browser. Their advantages are in the ease of developing extensions and tools that aren't part of the core package.

The difference is similar to Vim/Emacs. Of course Vim has some IDE-y plugins, but they're rarely as rich as what ends up getting built in Emacs.

I would say it's a two way street....natives have to be more welcoming yes, but non-natives should also not be so eager to play the race card, sometimes a person is just a jerk and race is an easy insult.

But even beyond that, I personally believe the "just don't be racist, everyone is the same after all" belief is rather naive. I suspect that there are in fact in some places and in some ways, increasing racism against certain groups, specifically mainland Chinese. The mainstream narrative that there is no such thing as culture is so obviously false, I honestly take people with these opinions about as seriously as they take redneck Trump supporters.

If you want me to pretend that everyone is the same, and that immigration has absolutely zero affect, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to disagree (but I will try to be welcoming and polite).
This whole story just comes off as a bunch of bruised egos too proud to get out of their own way.

Why Does Apple NEED an acknowledgment that they didn't do anything wrong? What difference would it make?

Why can't Kapeli just acknowledge that he was associated with a bad actor in Apple's system.

I get the idea of integrity, but I get the idea of self-preservation a little more...Especially when reality is subjective and your perspective might not be the only sincerely held belief.

I will never understand the people too principled to just SAY SORRY even if you believe you are in the right. Are you so principled that you can't even acknowledge the existence of a potential conflicting view point, at least enough to admit you might be wrong, when its clearly in your best interest to just own up, and move on...even if you aren't sincere in your apology!

Edit: I can maybe understand a prisoner refusing to admit to a crime they didn't commit to a parole board despite contrition being a key to getting released...but at some point of serving a life sentence, you have to kick into self preservation mode and just admit to wrongdoing, and spend your free years atoning for your lie.

The phone call doesn't stipulate terms the way you describe.

Apple says his account was linked to the fraudulent account. They define "linked" as sharing test devices, and having been enrolled under the same credit card number. The accounts were linked.

They say to the developer that if he explains exactly the above then his account will be re-instated. It's not a "fake review" if it's stating the facts.

The part where we can assign blame to Apple is where they failed to notify all "linked accounts" when one of the accounts was engaged in fraudulent activity. They only notified the account engaged in the fraudulent activity, but went on to shut down that account and all linked accounts.

If they had notified all linked accounts then the developer claims he could have taken steps to resolve this much sooner. (But to argue for Apple's side here: Apple views all linked accounts as a singular "legal entity," and so assumed notifying one was the same as notifying them all.)
Not sure why people are downvoting - they should be commenting if they disagree!

"As much as I wouldn't have believed this 10 years ago, Microsoft does open source better than almost everyone."

This. They are treating vscode like its a core (cash cow) product. I'd say google embraced/adopted open source early on and now microsoft is playing catchup while now becoming one of the very best to do it.
Why didn't they contact his "primary" account via its registered email address? They shut down two accounts but only contacted the first. The analogy would be better as I'm invited to a party and I bring my cousin. I leave after an hour. My cousin causes a bunch of damage to the host's place after I leave. Then two years later the host comes to my place of business and burns it to the ground and says I should've listened to the demands they made to my cousin over the last two years.
The guy has already admitted that the fraudulent account is from his "relative" who uses the same credit card and same test devices. It seems like Apple gave him a lot of leeway due him actually making a good app and being public.

While I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt, the overwhelming most likely case is he was doing exactly what Apple thought he was doing. At the very least, he should take some responsibility for the fact he's paying for someones account who is actively trying to harm his competitors.

Apple probably could've avoided a lot of this mess by not overtly banning his account, but doing the except opposite of what his manipulations intended and make the app almost impossible to find.
Choppy scrolling is a high price to pay for an IDE in my opinion.

Functional Programming in Scala is probably my favorite tech/coding book ever. It takes you from square one to writing a full fledged, 100% functional, concurrent, IO tool kit. If you didn't think it was possible (or know how) to do functional IO, or FP was helpful or things like databases, webservers etc. definitely check this book out.

Scala is a great language too. Easy to get started with, very challenging to master, but the community is great, job opportunities are very good, and I'm having a blast doing it.

I get what you're saying, but if Apples gets hammered with bad publicity every time their anti-fraud team does the right thing, they're going to stop doing the right thing.

Especially as this case is going to be cited for years to come, it's important apple has something to point to and say: "We didn't just arbitrarily ban the account, it was involved in manipulating our reviews"

I assume only the regular version (non-Pro) is open source? If not, I'm really curious how this works together with Pro version being paid.
I think apple is pretty savvy to this sort of attack. They only banned him after there were thousands of fake reviews (supporting his app, and harming others) AND an account that was tied to his (same device ids and credit card) was involved.

I think apple acted pretty responsibly here.
No. You can use a different bank account to get paid and use a different name for your developer account from credit card used. You can even use a prepaid credit card(But you have to provide ID). In this case, it's clear that the account names were different. Also it seems the bank accounts to get payment from apple were different(Otherwise they would mention it). And the only links were the credit card and some devices(only apple and the developer know how many devices and in some extent)

I think its a perfectly valid part of the discussion. Facebook holds a great deal of power with the kinds of personal data they possess so I don't have a problem whatsoever holding them to the highest standard possible when it comes to private information.

Well, look at it from the patients point of view... if there isn't a doctor to available, because they took some time off after a 20+ day stint...where does that leave you(the patient)? It's a tough job, but they signed up for it, and the pay is very good by comparison to other jobs that have similarly long hours.

For some contrast though, before everyone cries out "save the med students, they have it harder than any one should endure"... remember there are other jobs with far greater risks, hours, and far less pay. Ever been deployed in a military unit during wartime? I've wished there was a window to jump out of several times, or that a pager beeping was the scariest thing to fear while trying to sleep - and that was in recent engagements, it was far worse for the generation before us during wartime - doctors not so much.

That is a bad analogy. This is case of mistaken identity, not a bad referral. Ask yourself, why are not giving this respected developer the benefit of the doubt?

A better analogy would be: You loaned your underage friend your ID 4 years ago and forgot about it. They proceeded to behave badly at a bar over a period of years without your knowledge. Then the bar owner confuses your identity based solely on that ID, despite your picture looking nothing like them and you being a well known and respected regular, and bans you without notice. Then they admit it wasn't you that trashed the place, but won't let you in until you state that the bar made no mistake in confusing you for that person.

I've not tried LiteIDE since it first came out. I did not enjoy the experience at the time. The toolchain in VSCode is really nice. You can run tests from your cursor, the file, or the package. There is a built in terminal if you want it. Jump and peek definition for stdlib and imported packages. GoImports works, but so does a cmd+p prompt where you can ">Go: Add Import" and specifically add the import you want so autocomplete just starts working for it. The linting catches me all the time when I type fmt.Println instead of fmt.Printf or have the wrong format types in the string. You have to mouse over something to get its method signature or type, but I've gotten used to it. I even have found myself using its git diff viewer. It also has delve debugger integration, but I've not had the chance to use it yet.

I also use VSCode for bash, python, perl, HTML, markdown, and probably a few others that I'm forgetting. However, I primarily use it for Go.

We deployed this last month, taking part in the early access program. On the whole it's been of net cultural benefit for our non-profit. Our staff seem more engaged with the overall mission, better informed about what's going on and more likely to share information that they might have been reticent to share over email.

I really like that it's completely separate from my 'personal' Facebook, and it seems with the rebranding from "Facebook at Work" they're trying to emphasize that separation even more.
I love this podcast. I am always torn with so many startup podcasts coming out. On one hand, they are kind of inspirational and entertaining.

The solution might just be to expand or establish more medical schools, and graduate more doctors.

If there were twice as many doctors, the existing doctors probably wouldn't need to work 80 hours a week, and could likely cut down to 40 hours.

The other problem might be that doctors are paid extremely well in the U.S. compared to the rest of the world, and even compared to other rich first-world countries.

I think this position is a bit idealistic, since some level of State power is unavoidable and taxes will be levied whether or not we agree with them. (Unless you escape to a desert island)

So if the tax money is real and the consequences of not paying are real, then I expect something from the government in return!

(I do agree that State power needs to be kept in check.)

There is so much Ancient Greek its hard to paint them all with the same brush. Koine (biblical) Greek is very simple and a modern speaker can get the gist, but polyphonic Greek in the flavor of Sappho or the Iliad would be very, very difficult for a modern speaker to understand. Meanwhile, the Torah is still taught in full, in (roughly) the original; it is not at all surprising someone can still read it fully with modern education.
Holding them to the highest standard and having a discussion is fine. Bringing up non applicable points from the past is not ok. The premise being made in that argument was "mark was untrustworthy as a student and therefore he should be treated with suspicion now". That premise is flawed as it has no logical connection to the present. If someone can bring proof that Mark still doesn't care about privacy and is cavalier about it, fine. That point doesn't do that. Therefore, it shouldn't be part of the discussion.

>"We didn't just arbitrarily ban the account, it was involved in manipulating our reviews"

>anti-fraud team does the right thing

That's not what happened though. What happened is that Apple has their internal tools to link fraudulent accounts, to keep out bad actors, and this "good" account got caught in that web. You can just as easily argue that he didn't actually do anything wrong. After all, if he did Apple wouldn't even consider reinstating him. The fact that Apple linked the accounts internally doesn't actually point to any guilt or wrongdoing...It could even be pointed to Apple's policies arbitrarily hurting the little guy.

I can see both sides very clearly and I can see a middle ground very clearly. The only thing stopping this from being resolved is "bruised egos" on both sides.
