Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Not really that surprising. Computer programmers are textbook petite bourgeoisie.
Edit I don't keep track of C and C-likes, but apparently D has been forked, and it seems that Walter Bright is a bit of a dick as a maintainer too

Not a huge schock. But this imho also shows a bit of a problem with these kinds of projects and their ownership. Shit will go bad when the owners grow old and refuse to give up ownership. Walter is 65, you dont expect people to keep up with the cutting edge and wider needs of programmers
I'm glad to hear someone's invested enough to fork it. I like D (hehe) and it would be a shame for it to just languish in Bright daylight.
