"The Elves Leave Middle Earth – Sodas Are No Longer Free"† was posted almost ten years ago. I've now seen that in action now more than once (including a case of literally starting …

Timely, the first new beta in years just came out. There's a lot more content to go before it's a complete game, but there's lot of fun to be had. Contributions welcome!

Time to advise your friends to be extra cautious against phishing attempts.

This is like the circle of life for startups, I swear. Next up will be "legal services for someone interfering with your disruptive business model as a service".

GPL 3 adds an anti-patent-treachery clause not unlike the Apache 2 clause. React Patent Grant Version 2: https://github.com/facebook/react/blob/b8ba8c83f318b84e42933... The license…

Today in "headlines that would have been April Fools jokes ten years ago"

That's a fair guess. It was more a "maybe some of them want time off without getting above average interview offer spam". Overall I think it's a good thing too.

Yes. If it was set up from outside it has the feel of imposing a job hunting strategy on people without their involvement.

Interesting, was this set up by someone from soundcloud or independently?
