What Hacker News says
- Culture and Empire by Pieter Hintjens (he also created ZeroMQ, among other things and titles).
That book offers excellent insight into the stupidity of crowds and how that plays into geopolitics, and more.
- Funny, I read Culture and Empire before I got to use ZeroMQ at work. Small world. For what it's worth - all but nothing, I guess - I am sorry you are ill.
I loved the book. Thank you for your contributions to the world by writing it, and your contributions to open source. I'm sorry I never got the chance to meet you.
- This must be understood in the light of the philosophy of Peter Hinjens which is the community comes always first, before technical assets. Smoothing community process and interactions is (very) necessary for a project success.
Growing zeromq ideas mainstream will provide more value to the project of improving distributed software than changing drastically zeromq (to (re-)build nanomsg community).
> testing coverage completely matters.
testing matters not testing coverage.
Testing matters as way to give insight about the project, api and protocols as such integration tests more useful that unit tests. This help people jump in, it's a way to document the API/Protocol.
Achieving the API and protocols is more important than having a good code coverage. If there is no code, there is nothing to cover, and nothing to show.
He develop his ideas of good community processus in the chapter Sphere of Lights of Culture and Empire essay [1]
