As someone who recently completed CBTI for my insomnia, I can't recommend this approach more. I sleep quite well now. Definitely combatting poor attitudes regarding sleep is very important.

I think that what anilgulecha meant by ownership is that there are probably quite a few committers. So they are not just some random people taken from the street. It's not so clear cut, but there is something to it. It would not be good for your contributors to take the carpet from under your feet, but at the same time part of the project already belongs to them.
I would like to take this opportunity and ask about another disappearance of a project leader, even if it's only a minor project:

Ben Hsieh, owner of "react-native-fetch-blob", a native (iOS and Android) module for filesystem access and network requests fro React Native.

https://github.com/wkh237

Does anybody know what happened to him?

I'm asking because I had "Contributor" status for his project on Github and was left with the pieces.
Yeah, Apple is either number one or two in terms of phones sold compared to other manufacturers.

But Android has a commanding lead of Smartphone OS installation. Because you not only have the Samsung Galaxy phones of the world, but also the BLU Studio X8.

Not in this case I'd hope, since the charm of these shelters is the fact that only cabbies use them. Letting the public use them would remove any interest... "nobody goes there anymore: it's too crowded!"

Select committees and there are a lot of them actually do a lot of real work as opposed to the eqvielent committees in the USA.

A lot of legislation starts out that way and also they can effectively say Mr/MS x is not a fit and proper person to be a director which is a serious problem for uk domiciled companies as they would have to be fired.

I'm not familiar with the 'parec' command. Are you able to filter out other audio streams (e.g. Slack alerts or accidentally opening a page with an auto-play video)? I was under the impression that one of the big advantages of Pulse Audio was its ability to separate multiple streams.

Interestingly enough, I had similar scripts about 15 years ago pre-Napster. The earliest mp3 sharing sites tended to push full-albums instead of breaking things up by track. I had a lot of fun using some of the earlier mp3 tools to break up and tag tracks. I still have a lot those mp3s on various HDs, and I know it because my splits weren't perfect for certain tracks that don't have 2 second gaps.

The missing bits on the github side are permissions to add/change organization team members.
I think there’s also a big hurdle of a new thing when you’ve already spent years learning it.

A good friend of mine said, you can only convince someone to change what they’re used to if your thing is 10X better. If it’s just another alternative, you’re gonna be in for disappointment.
"so are these like a rogue group of MP's who actually take their job seriously and think government should return to its non-theatre basis?"

This brief fit of apparent competence is probably just a temporary aberration. Normal service should resume shortly.

The regulation asserts the scope of data protection as global; it's applicable to all foreign companies processing data of EU residents, whether the companies are based in the EU or not.

It will be interesting to see how the mechanisms of enforcement play out but I imagine there are plans for direct and indirect implementation in situations that warrant the harshest options (ban on processing and/or monetary fine). E.g. getting cooperation from payment or logistics processors to stop processing EU sales of a offending foreign company. A halt on sales or delivery of goods to such a large region could be crippling for a company.

Consider what would happen if he didn't want to merely "toggle" his door, but rather have it closed, definitively and once and for all.

Could he do that with /toggle? Does he know the state of the door well enough to know if toggle is the right command? Can he even trust the state of the door being told to him? What if it's already closed and it opens instead?

No. The only way is to send a message that directly says "Close the Door", with no room for ambiguity on his intent.

JSON RPC excels at this, and in putting the door in whatever state he wants, maybe half way, or 3/4. How would you do this with "convenient" GETs? Use query params? Multiple endpoints? By this point, idempotency is in the rear view mirror and you're well on your way to having a clunky garage door system fraught with bugs and strange edge cases.

What's with all the legal bluster in your comments here? Not only do the liabilities you're trying to conjure up not exist, but this is not even the first occurrence of something like this happening with GitHub. They have a documented policy for freeing up inactive names. (Spoiler alert: it's allowed, and they've done it.)
Consider link shortener services...

It's perfectly fine to have certain side-effects, provided the GET is idempotent, but not others/most. Specifically, it's fine to idempotently have side-effects where it doesn't matter who is causing the effect, the side-effects are desirable, and the side-effect load won't be overwhelming.

In the case of a link shortener one can pretend that the side effect did not happen the first time the service sees some particular link, that the shortening has already occurred (at the beginning of time!). There is definitely a side-effect, since it involves updating a persistent hash table, and it is idempotent (though one could construct a shortener where it's possible to get more than one shortened form for a given URI when racing to shorten it, but this is not a problem for this particular sort of service).
