Brett asked on Twitter if people would be interested in having him write down the history behind his decision to choose GitHub for Python's future development process and people said "yes"(some literally), hence this blog post. Gather 'round.

Brought back an old memory;
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.
New version: WinHeist Version Tequila, the nigh time, snuffly, sneezing, how the hell did I end up on the bathroom floor medicine.

How many people does it take to fix a tractor? A year ago, I would have said it took just one person. One person with a broken tractor, a free afternoon, and a box of tools. I would have been wrong. Welp, throw it out and buy a new one.

I start thinking that brad pitt was right in the fight club. Maybe is the best, to have a day zero.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Wow! This is what Richard Stallman (Richard Stallman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^]) has been talking about for over 30 years now.
The original problem he encountered was printer hardware bug and how he coudn't fix it because the software was proprietary and closed -- very similar to the tractor problem.
Amazing how far software has come (and still not changed).
It is a big challenge of course, because there are many people who rip off technology.

A blog post by ex-Bitcoin developer Mike Hearn has highlighted dysfunctional management right at the top of Bitcoin development. "It's those users, man."

With automakers and technology companies rushing to develop self-driving cars, the Obama administration on Thursday pledged to expedite regulatory guidelines for autonomous vehicles and invest in research to help bring them to market. Back-scratching seems more expensive. Inflation, I guess.

Twenty nations with significant atomic stockpiles or nuclear power plants have no government regulations requiring minimal protection of those facilities against cyberattacks, according to a study by the Nuclear Threat Initiative. War. War never changes.

Yahoo Labs has released a record-breaking dataset containing 110 billion interactions from 20 million Yahoo News users in 1.5TB of zipped data. The anonymized data is intended for research initiatives in artificial intelligence, including user-behavior modeling, collaborative filtering techniques and unsupervised learning methods. Thankfully I only read the classiest of news.

Netflix says it will step up enforcement against subscribers who use VPNs, proxies, and unblocking services to mask their locations. It's as if millions of VPNs suddenly cried out in terror and were silenced

I suspect this is mainly to keep the media companies happy.

Using VPN's, it would probably be easy to share an account at multiple locations. Personally, I'm even too cheap for that. I typically use putlocker.is.

In this interview, Mark Gainey, CEO and cofounder of Strava, explained why he thinks wearables will continue to make fitness a more enjoyable and seamless part of our everyday lives. Until engineers figure out ways of manipulating their Fitbits

We don't need to. We already have DigitalEPO.com[^]. This takes your Garmin or Strava ride files and tweaks them. Add a little power here, trim your times there...
(But I love Strava - those guys have done amazing work)

Hmmm... I had to "hide" the update on my Win 7 systems again this week. 
I suspect that they who install these patches will get ads for versions after 10 when they become available. No thanks.
