That analogy isn't really what's happened in this case, no one is saying a baker would be forced to make a specific type of cake they otherwise wouldn't offer. The better analogy to your situation is a baker (gay or otherwise) who refused to bake cakes for women.

Which, by the way, under current law would in fact be illegal.
Then you could go all the way:
Employers: I won't hire you because your black

Doctors: I won't treat you because you're gay.

It can't work that way or we have a lot of discrimination.

It's exactly the same. "The cake was meant to be a celebration of a Black marriage, and the plaintiff's religion doesn't accept Black people as human."
SMH. I used to work for Nat at Xamarin before it was acquired by MSFT. GitHub and Xamarin have had a long and deep relationship going back to at least 2012 (that I’m aware of anyway).

Xamarin was run on GitHub. We never used any other version control system. GitHub used Xamarin extensively as well. There were a lot of overlapping social graphs between the engineers of both as well.

Miguel and Nat both helped to make F/OSS and Linux what it is today—thank them if you like GNOME. Nat represents MSFT in this deal, and that’s great news for F/OSS enthusiasts everywhere.

Nat and Scott Guthrie aren’t responsible for the “sins of their fathers.” Time to move on from the Microsoft hating. That era has been over for a while.
Nokia had and released their own version of Android [0] which probably sped up the negotiations with Microsoft. Likely done by a completely different team vs. the Symbian people, though somone else probably knows more of those details.

If people want to ditch GitHub because of Microsoft's actions 10 years ago, you can be sure they won't forgive SourceForge last year's actions... Or that would be some pretty heavy cognitive dissonance.

There is no evidence that these APIs provided more data than a user had legitimate access to.
That precedent is even more useful as a measuring stick with Nat Friedman (formerly CEO of Xamarin) announced to takeover the CEO role at GitHub.
This happens today with trans people and it's a travesty.

This is not only for extend their profits but also to protect. Imagine what it meant to Microsoft if another of the big five would have acquired it. Just think of Amazon and a deploy to AWS button.
It could be argued that forcing a business owner to provide a service they don’t want to perform is assault by the state (protected classes notwithstanding).

What if a business owner’s religion precludes then from serving a protected class or someone with a disability? Which takes precedence?
I remember back when 15ish years ago when SourceForge was a neat thing. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out why I would go there for any reason. Let alone host anything I cared about on that domain.

It's not even death by a thousand cuts, which y'all have done to yourself, but you also just failed to provide anything in the last 10 years that felt like it wasn't a cop out. Ignoring the abysmal failures and adware issues, which should be a non starter anyway.

We have tons of options that aren't SourceForge. Why is this even really a discussion? Gonna link to your SF from your My_?

EDIT:

Apparently SF is under new management and they are trying to change people's perception and are making good by a some accounts. I stand by what I said before I knew that, but I look forward to them contributing to the community in a way we can all respect.
So, what if one’s religion doesn’t let you sell cakes to Infidels, or Jews, or blacks?

Why does religious beliefs get get out of jail free cards but other sincere beliefs, like say in Socialism or Environmentalism not get similar deference?

For example conscientous objection in the US used to rely on religous beliefs and it would be hard to avoid going to war by asserting your opposes to it for rational secular reasons.

The law should apply equally to everyone no matter your internal beliefs or how offended you are at something. Atheists can’t object to laws on ththe grounds they find something deeply offensive and against their morals, so why do Christian bigots get to do so?
No. We're the bleeding edge. Suffering from illnesses such as propaganda-resistance and DIY attitude.

Aha - I think this answers something that has always confused me.

If I create a micro-service and want to protect it, CORS doesn't help me very much. I still need some sort of authentication mechanism (perhaps provided in a cookie) to say, "yes - this request is permitted."

CORS helps protect that authentication mechanism within a browser.

So we have evidence that Trump was aided by Russian and now possibly Israeli propaganda efforts. Obama (and Clinton) did things to anger both of these nations: sanctions against Russia and the Iran nuclear deal respectively.

These nations are not necessarily allies, so it's not that there was one big conspiracy of foreign powers to elect Trump. Rather it seems that multiple different foreign powers may have had different reasons to do so.

One of the costs of being a global superpower/empire is that your politics are no longer just domestic. The entire world has a vested interest in what happens in American elections and can therefore be expected to attempt to work very hard to influence them. Citizens United among other things opened the door wide to soft money influence of American elections, making it easy for foreign powers to do so. The global nature of the Internet also makes influence of domestic elections quite easy.
>>Haven't they killed Nokia and ruined Skype?

To be really frank Nokia killed itself in the after math of the iPhone. But that was long time coming. When a company which wasn't even your prime competitor an year or two back, out innovates you to the graveyard, you really were setting yourself up for something like this for a while.

And yes, WhatsApp did the same to Skype.

I probably shouldn't bother, but-

America was founded by a bunch of Christians, and some of the country's construction surely was influenced by that.

However America was NOT founded as a Christian state.

Where the left & right butt heads over this is usually when, for example, pro-lifers say "God clearly forbids abortion and America is a Christian state so our laws must follow the Bible", and pro-choicers say "Uh, no, this is not a Christian state, the Bible does not set our laws".
Yes they are, this is what the civil rights movement was all about, you can't discriminate based on a large number of protected classes
How this news is connected with "Hacker News"?
OK, can I refuse to sell a house to a gay couple who's getting married, then? That's also celebrating their marriage, in a much more meaningful way.
Yup, we definitely take new grads.
Updated. Thanks for the feedback.
No, you've got it wrong. They make cakes, the couple asked them to make one, and were refused service based on their sexual preference. The baker would presumably make that exact same cake design for another same-sex couple. Design of the cake had nothing to do with it.
Exactly. That's why I don't bake for asians.
Not according to the civil rights act of 1964. Or the americans with disabilities act of 1990.
Cases like this have me baffled. They just seem unreasonable. Why would you want to pay someone to make something important to you like a wedding cake if they clearly do not want to? On the other hand what sort of business rejects paying customers that aren't doing any harm?

I realize it is a matter of principle for both sides but why do both political wings in the US feel compelled to force those with opposing belief systems to comply with their belief system? Post a negative review on Yelp and just find a better baker that's not a jerk!

The level of tolerance of those with differing opinions is extremely low in this country and I fear it may eventually be an Achille's heel. Tolerance goes both ways, if someone is being a jerk to you avoid them don't bully them into doing things your way. On the flipside if someone wants to be your customer: let them!

You're obviously not a lawyer.

They are a public accommodation and laws apply to them. He isn't compelled to bake them a cake, but only in the sense that he isn't compelled to operate a company that sells cakes to the public.
You can't force them to bake a cake for someone, but you can fine them, throw them in jail, or put them out of business for refusing.

However, I suggest reading the Court's opinions to see what reasons they actually used in their ruling.[1]

Their ruling focused largely on how they felt that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission (CCRC) didn't properly respect the baker's religious beliefs, and that the CCRC has demonstrated inconsistencies with their rulings on other similar cases.

What if your religion says that "black people are inferior to white people?"

This is at the very nature of the debate: Are people of different sexualities HUMAN rights, in EXACTLY the same way that people of different ethnicities are.

Because if they are, civil rights supercede religious rights. ("Your fist's freedom ends where my face begins")

Time and time again the US falls on the side that "no, gay people are not entitled to civil rights", diametrically opposite from every other western nation.
Actually you can and this is a good thing in many cases. Though in some cases you end up in a gray area where it’s not so clear what is right. We force doctors to treat people and in certain circumstances they are forced to treat people even if they can’t pay. We force pharmacists to fill prescriptions. We prevent landlords from discriminating against protected classes.

In the case at hand I think the court got it right. I sympathize with the sentiment that a business owner ought to be able to turn down business but I don’t deny that there are situations where this shouldn’t be the case.
At the end of the day there will always be cases where one right stands against another and a society will have to decide which right is more important. Such decisions are shaping a society, not laws that say "you have right xy" without any context.

What a beautiful world would have been the German Nazis world. (sarcastic)
That's a disingenuous argument. They didn't say "we don't serve gays here", they said "we don't want to make a custom cake as requested".

If a gay person walked in, picked a cake off the shelf and said "I'd like to buy this cake" and was refused for being gay, that's a different story. As in that would literally be a completely different story than what happened.
i think the argument is that, while refusing to serve the gay couple at all would be illegal discrimination, refusing to make a cake with their specific design is not. although i find it gross that people would have an issue making this type of cake, i find the free speech angle somewhat compelling in this case.
Not "always." I started working with Microsoft dev tools in the late 80's and early 90's after Borland's sun began to set (in no small part because MS poached a lot of their best people). There was a time when MS was the developer's best friend, and tools like the early versions of MSDN gave unprecedented access to information that previously had been very hard to get (raise your hand if you ever paid over $100USD for a manual from IBM). Of course back then the FOSS community did not exist, and the alternatives were old line players like IBM, Digital and Sun. Things are different now. My major concern is not that the company is somehow still evil in a Ballmer-esque way, but rather that their focus on enterprise customers will inevitably lead to changes in the core Github offering. We'll see.
You are massively misrepresenting the case.

There is a world of difference between someone refusing to design or bake a cake on the basis of the contents requested and someone refusing to do the same on the basis of the person(s) requesting the cake.

The baker refused to bake a cake because the couple was gay, not because of what was on it.
Yet most of their other tools still don't work on Linux, and have no public roadmap to, or any kind of comments on.. I'm waiting on my MS Teams client.... I can understand the older software, that might have lots of history, legacy libraries, etc, but Teams is a brand new tool they are just releasing.. They have a chrome plugin, but it requires you install an MSI.
To be fair, all cloud environments have (major?) outages. Do you have data to backup your claim?
Eh, you missed the point. Replace 'work with' with 'serve' or whatever. This ruling empowers business owners as much as anyone else to refuse service based on sexual preference.
7-2 decision doesn't sound very narrow to me.

Please explain this point in particular. I can't seen to imagine what this could possibly mean.
Did you actually write this many words based on your disagreement of my usage of "literally"?
They are so different, that even thought they keep the same practices and goals from always, some people say they're a different company now!
It is a 'public accommodation' within the meaning of the legal definition: i.e., a place where the general public may freely enter and do business. Civil rights law forbids discrimination in public accommodations on the basis of race, religion, or national origin. If a Christian baker said, we don't serve Jews, they'd get sued in a minute.
Race is constitutionally protected, sexuality is not.
I'll probably come off as a spoiled Westerner here, but that's not my intent.

Isn't it a bit presumptuous to assume that everyone in impoverished parts of the world even _want_ the kind of prosperity we have? It seems to be taken for granted that all the drawbacks to modern civilization are outweighed by the benefits. But then, isn't this the same mindset that has set us on this course of man-made global heating?

I suppose I'm advocating for leaving other countries to decide their own paths and not trying to push our prosperity onto them. If that makes me a greedy Westerner, so be it. I don't exactly enjoy my society, anyway.

This is what I thought too, but the article pretty clearly states that they detected too many neutrinos, not too few.

> Both experiments have now reported more neutrino detections than The Standard Model's description of neutrino oscillation can explain the authors wrote in the paper.

I had the same question you did: if the defining characteristic of a sterile neutrino is non-interaction, how does it get detected? My best guess is that NBC's summary of the definition of a sterile neutrino is probably wrong in a some subtle way.

My point is, that after reading the NYT article twice, I see several different interpretations, and the difference between the interpretations runs from FB is trying to do the right thing, to FB is outright lying. (And that it is pretty hard to write an article that nails down one of the interpretations without going into more technical detail than is possible in an article for a general audience.)

I agree that such a TOS is not a strong constrain, it is not technical and it is easily cirumvented, by just not using that specific api and instead getting the same data from the OS.
My thought exactly. For something that can easily be self-hosted, I feel a focus on a handful of "major platforms" is the wrong approach. Already people in this thread are saying that smaller well-known instances are "not major enough" which I disagree with.
That should definetly be fixed, but it's not something people will ever experience unless they try to write broken code by using undocumented features/sideeffects.

What exactly is it you know about the language that makes you hesitant to use it?

So if a person stops being gay while they’re in the bakery, do they get a cake?

Everything you just described as criteria for refusal was by personal choice.
I suggest that anyone interested in the case read the actual ruling. It's not that long and not hard to understand. [1]

Personally, I thought that the majority ruling and the dissent were both pretty compelling. I'm not sure where I would have come down on this issue.

Civil Rights Act extends protections to "protected groups"

As of now, does not include sexual orientation (as far as I can tell), although other bodies have interpreted sexual orientation to be protected (Equal Opportunity Employment)
I think the bigger issue is the "Round-Up Ready" crops and the fact that they produce sterile seeds.

Using Round-Up ready seeds allows the use of Round-Up for weed control on your fields, but this can have negative affects on neighboring farms. For example on Field A, populated with Round-Up ready seeds, Round Up is used to control the weeds. However this same spray can affect neighboring field B, which is not populated by Round-Up Ready seeds, causing weeds and crop die or reduced yields... So basically if your neighbor is using Round-Up, you need to also, and your neighbor...etc. So now everyone is locked into Round-Up ready seeds they have to buy every year.

That’s a myth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_frog
Actually, one of the biggest GMs from Monsanto is their 'Roundup ready' genetics, which makes the plant resistant to a potent herbicide called roundup (which they sell), which is a systemic herbicide containing glyphosate. They spray the whole field with that, and everything but the roundup-ready crops dies, including blow-over on the edges of fields. There are health controversies around this chemical, and it is now very prevalent in our food supply. In 2014, ~82% of soy cultivation is this particular GMO. You can imagine how little genetic diversity that gives us on an important staple crop, too. Soybeans aren't the only roundup ready crop, corn is another big one.

I'll be intrigued to see the long term consequences of this. Religious freedoms overriding civil rights regarding discrimination are a heck of a can of worms.

My local barber shop (who are really nice guys) nearly got into this situation a few years ago. On the day in question, all 3 barbers working were devout Muslim men who cannot touch a woman other than their wife. A woman came in looking for a men's cut. They refused. It made the news. They resolved it outside of courts amicably.

But what happens long term if everyone is allowed to discriminate against anyone they like so long as they wrap their beliefs up in a religious reasoning? Does society not lose out as we break off from interacting with those of other cultures?
Yeah, that's an awesome idea.

I had kicked it around with some potential customers but went with this simpler model just to see if anyone was interested.

Will most likely go for that next because you're right, diarization is insane :)
Your statement is quite ignorant. There is a massive difference between business-specific dress codes (both of your examples), and discrimination based on the way a person was born.
Those rules are based on behavior within the establishment, rather than who you are.
How would they kill it? It's open source.
