Deno currently requires glibc. Anyone have insight into it? Would getting musl more funding help make it so it can run on stock alpine?
Deno is built on V8, and V8 requires glibc. So it's down to Google supporting musl, and I don't think it's a money issue.
I don't _think_ this is true.

Shameless self plug - if Zig or Andy doesn't comment here, you can still donate crypto to Zig via their profile on every.org - https://www.every.org/zig-software-foundation-inc edit: we charge no fees since our ops are supported by our donors - the only fee that gets taken out is that charged by our brokerage for selling the crypto
This looks great but did ZSF opt-in or are you including them here in the hopes they'd take donations from you? Likely the latter? > https://support.every.org/hc/en-us/articles/360059840294-Why...

How would a future employer know what his salary was?
He could show them W2's from the current employer.

Wow, thank you for sharing this. I was not aware of Every.org until today. I checked out the platform just now and am delighted. I love that it is a 501(c)(3) and that it is crystal clear with the promise to remain that way. We desperately needed something like this. I also love that you will mail checks to organizations even if they do not sign up for electronic disbursement. However I will sign up ZSF now of course…
I'll match other HNers donations of as much as $100 to a total of an additional $1000. Not sure how to substantiate every.org donations but maybe I'll take HNers at their word.
EDIT: scoreboard as of 22:20 UTC: $400 out of $1000 to be matched: easymuffin, slimsag, tav, _hl_.
Because we need some kind of time bound, I'll leave this matching window open for the next 48 hours, so ~21:20 UTC on Saturday (this is ~5pm US Eastern time IIRC).

He is definitely paying extra taxes. Donations don't reduce social security and medicare tax liability, and depending on the arrangement either he or the foundation is paying for the "other half" of the tax
But he will also qualify for a higher SS payout since his income is higher, if my understanding is correct.

I think the poster was probably asking why anyone would tell a future employer this information. Employers should pay what they value the position at, not what someone else was paying for it.
