Slightly off-topic but I've been to a few meetups hosted at the Ann Arbor office and have really enjoyed them! It's always great to see companies contribute to the development scene, thanks!
Sure, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_avoidance . Various strategies to reduce income in one year or jurisdiction and apply it to another are widespread, and I'm not sure why this would be different. I am not a lawyer, though.

The "It's a tip!" nature of this seems irrelevant to taxes: either you accept it or you don't, and if you do, you may or may not be required to pay taxes on it, depending on laws that are applied to you.

You can build a skyscraper using a hammer, but you probably shouldn't. It's the exact same argument with WordPress and Drupal. Drupal is vastly superior for most dynamic website tasks then WordPress is. Views + content types provide that.

Signed binary's can get you most of the way there. It's still a trade-off and for most users waiting to apply a security patch is a larger danger.
About the trust thing - you probably don't often compile code without running it afterwards even now. A format call might be hidden in any library you use.

OpenBSD 5.6 isn't quite released yet, it's still not on the master site. The announcement will undoubtedly be going out soon though, and it's on a few mirrors if you wish to jump the gun.
If someone asked me to do that, my first response would be to ask for a huge lab and a lot of PhDs for several decades.
And what happens when a project's owner will never claim tips? Like if he declared he is not interested in using your site, but people will pay tips because they see the project's name?
I really don't think this is such a bad idea, I would actually like to see this. In my hosting environment I have a single location for all my drupal websites core files, and I just update that.

Free speech is not absolute in any country in the world.

In this case, the EU is trying to balance a right to free speech with privacy rights that have a history of very strong protections in Europe, on the assumption that violation of privacy rights can be a direct harm to people, and your rights to free speech does not extend to violate my rights to privacy to the extent of potentially causing harm unless there are yet other interests that factor in (such as public interest is, say, knowing whether or not a public figure is corrupt).

Further, if Google wants to make the argument that its index is expression, then it'd open the floodgates to get sued for any defamatory material, copyright violations etc. in its index. At least in Europe I doubt Google can get away with claiming its index is expression without being in for a world of hurt.

There are a few, such as Pantheon[1], Acquia Cloud[2], Platform.sh[3]. All three of the above providers did add some level of protection immediately following the security announcement, and they (and some other providers) helped ensure sites were updated to 7.32 as soon as possible.

I have to link back to my earlier comment about the key takeaway here[4]—not just for Drupal sites, but for anyone who operates any site on any server. You can't afford to let your site sit unmaintained if you value the information within; and if you build sites for other people, you have to convey the importance of that to your customers... 'With great power comes great responsibility' and all that jazz.

Your site is either currently broken, or will be someday; it's not about making 100% secure code and servers (you strive for that, of course); it's about your response once something happens (e.g. a security patch is released).

Great, he just painted an extra bulls-eye on their heads beause now they're making money with the project. Food for lawyers.
We don't impersonate anybody. We just provide additional way to reward project's contributors and perhaps attract more of them. We'll make it more explicit with https://github.com/tip4commit/tip4commit/issues/136
This sounds like how the early digital age of computers over-simplified analog processing of audio and video and PDEs (and what other complex phenomenon? Language AI?), and only later started to close the gap.
I agree that an open source developer can object to donations on a personal level and I think it's a very reasonable request to personally unsubscribe from communications from some entity.

What I don't agree with is complaining that you're being spammed after you put your contact information in the public domain and receive a notification that somebody would like to give you money. I also don't agree that a "project owner" should get to deny any potential contributors to receive donations based on his own personal objections.
Did you tell them?

EDIT: I did https://github.com/tip4commit/tip4commit/issues/147
Tesla drove himself crazy trying to transmit power wirelessly.

Physics and nature make it hard to safely transfer a large amount of energy between a source and our bodies. Wide beam = loss. Narrow beam = destroying human flesh.

Wireless anything has a reality distortion field around it.

This plan seems like it is bulging with "almosts."

I don't think it will go widespread, but it will be a valuable niche. Kind of like google glass and segways. Their job is to find that niche. Perhaps in a laboratory or food processing factory setting? or another manufacturing environment where a machine or robot must operate wirelessly.
OpenBSD is what I use to host a bunch of private sites for myself and a few people I know. This is only due to some custom configurations and applications that my shared webhost didn't provide and for things I can't be bothered with, like my own domain which is static html. I put them on the shared host.

I wish it was for a lofty goal like security and "code correctness" etc... but the honest answer is that it's extremely simple (once you get used to it) and I tend to be extremely lazy at times. Configuration is very straightforward for a lot of things and there have been very few surprises along the way. Actually no surprises that I can recall in most of what I do since 5.0.

I wouldn't recommend it as a desktop system although plenty of people (including my boss) use it as such. There is some fiddling required for this that I'd rather not do, but for very simple, stable and surprise-free servers, it works very well for me. I also wouldn't recommend it for first-time admins either, although their man pages are some of the most thorough and helpful I've ever read.

SEEKING FREELANCER (Remote / Charlottesville, VA, US):

UpHex (http://uphex.com) is a tiny, nascent SaaS company that helps digital marketing agencies monitor analytics on behalf of their clients.

We're hiring a data analyst / scientist who's comfortable both in a general-purpose programming language (e.g. Python, Ruby, Go, etc.) and a simulation/modeling language (e.g. MATLAB/Octave, R, Sage, etc.).

You can read the position description here to find out more about the role and about us:

> At times like this, I really wish there were more best practices to mitigate against these type of vulnerabilities.

There are many best practices:

- Use version control.
- Have remote backups for the past day, week, month, etc.
- Apply security patches immediately (and have test infrastructure so you can make sure they don't break anything).
- Be able to rebuild a server from scratch w/ backups (configuration management really helps here).
- Subscribe to security mailing lists/RSS feeds/Twitter accounts.

This vulnerability is pretty bad, of course, but there have been many like it before, and there will be many like it in years to come.

If nothing else, use this situation to prepare for the worst on your own site; how would you respond if your site was hacked, your database in an unknown state, and your codebase potentially backdoored?

RiutBag – The revolutionary rucksack
Your explanation of the legal situation comes out of nowhere. It's not related to why people find the website so distasteful (I think I've tried to explain that enough already). I'm wondering if you are being deliberately obtuse about this.

The best thing tip4commit could do to demonstrate their very well intention would be to quickly listen to anybody who asks them to remove the offer to collect donations (that is, simply listen to the thunderous frustration rather than wondering where all the hate is coming from while trying to explain how they are just doing this nice thing).
I use.
And mostly I use for consumer internal applications.

Why:

1. After install sometimes I do not have access or prompt access to the machine;

2. It is safe and the need for updates are minimal.

It works..
However every project's balance is stored in your coffers, correct ? And you use an exponential decay function to distribute tips (1% of the balance per commit), which means that some fraction of the donated amount will always remain in your possession, correct ? And statistically, a majority of projects will slow down or stop development altogether eventually, and in this case you will keep the bitcoins indefinitely, correct ?

Could you provide an estimate of the amount of tips actually sent to people with regards to the amount donated ? Could you also provide an estimate of how much funds are being withheld because the tips amount is below the withdrawal threshold ?
I hack on my OSS project on OpenBSD exclusively. I'm a stickler for good documentation, and the BSDs IMO are far better than Linux.

I use OpenBSD because 3-4 years ago I discovered a bug in the FreeBSD kernel that meant my OSS project wouldn't work. When generating lots of IGMPv2 packets on FreeBSD I could consistently cause the kernel to panic. I wrote a bug report, but I'm not a kernel hacker so I just switched to OpenBSD.

Manpages in Linux are atrocious, and each distro has their own way of doing things that only half works. I don't like GNU info, and Googling for docs is unacceptable. I often work in places with no Internet and I need the doc with me.

you say 'before _collecting_ donations'. just don't _collect_ if you don't want to.
Yeah, I packet captured what TR-069 (on my Actiontek C1000A) was sending to CenturyLink every day it included:

All the Mac address associated on the network.

The username/password to my router.

All the names of the computers associated on the network.

My WPS pin.

My SSID Name.

My WPA2 Password.

My old WEP Password.

How long each computer has been on the network.

Amongst other things.

It was pretty scary. Luckily I have root on the device, tr69 is no longer alive
SEEKING WORK - remote, from Israel

I've been a full-stack Web developer since 1993, when I set up one of the first 100 Web sites in the world. I've been working as a consultant since 1995. I have extensive experience with Ruby (and Rails), Python, PostgreSQL, JavaScript, and many other technologies. I have a PhD in Learning Sciences from Northwestern University; I researched the intersection between online communities, collaboration, social networks, and agent-based models.

My real value isn't my extensive technological know-how. Rather, it's my ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical people, and to turn that communication into business value.

I know how to take business needs and turn them into software, by myself and with others. I also know how to describe technical issues in terms that business people can understand, that allow us to make informed decisions. Many of my clients have used me as a remote, part-time CTO or lead developer.

I also help developers and teams improve their coding and management practices. I frequently teach in-person courses in Python, Ruby/Rails, PostgreSQL, and Git to such companies as Apple, Cisco, Freescale, HP, SANDisk, and VMWare. I also offer online coaching/pairing services to individuals and teams. I can be your "personal coding trainer," setting goals and meeting several times each week to ensure that your code and coding improve.

In this vein, I recently I recently made my first ebook, "Practice Makes Python" (http://lerner.co.il/practice-makes-python), available for pre-release purchase; the full version should be ready within two weeks.

My aim: Long-term, interesting projects with nice people. (Short-term relationships can also be fine, depending on the work and myschedule.) Bottom line, I like to speak with and help nice people, and feel privileged that my work lets me do so. If I can incorporate elements of what I learned doing my PhD -- an online collaborative platform and social network for agent-based modelers (http://modelingcommons.org/) -- then that would delight me even more.

If I can be of help to you or your company, contact me at reuven@lerner.co.il, or on Skype as "reuvenlerner". You can also read more about me at http://lerner.co.il/ , and on my blog at http://blog.lerner.co.il/ .

Centervue - http://www.centervue.com - Padova, Italy

We're looking for

* A Rails backend person. Postgres, Rails 3.1. Knowledge of AWS is a big plus.

* An Android person, with deep knowledge of Android, including the whole OS (Cyanogen mod). Some design skills along with this would be nice.

Other stuff that's nice: Erlang, C++ (Qt).

It's a good company, doing something that helps people in the real world. The wages are good by Italian standards (at least 1600 net, and willing to discuss working with a Partita IVA), but Italian wages are in general not that high .

Pure remote work is probably not something that would work well, since you need to be able to interact with the machines we work on. Some remote work might be ok if you're able to come in often.

Investors decided to invest in a dumb project.

Here's the thing: so what?
Lots of people want to make money from their open-source projects, directly or indirectly.
Just build it, none of anything you talk about matters, you won't even end up doing 10% of the things you mentioned.

Don’t Stop at “Full Stack Developer” – The “Full Stack Employee”
Firstly, you need to make abundantly obvious and clear promises as to what happens to money left it accounts. There is no reason to trust your escrow, let alone your ability to manage or secure it. I honestly still can't find it spelled out clearly, and even then it'd be hard to trust.

I suggest you pull your site before this PR gets even further out of hand, then reboot. If you continue to pursue your project, partner with a couple projects that opt-in (free publicity for you both) and work to their needs. Once you have things in order, then you can think about something more automated.
