Ongoing network issues are continuing to significantly degrade the performance and stability of bitbucket.org. Our operations, networking and onsite engineers are working tirelessly to resolve the incident.
Please follow http://status.bitbucket.org/ for the latest information. We will also be updating support tickets as we get information.
Real reason for the redesign. Works for every screen. Loads fast. Aesthetic component is important but not so important. This is a real marriage of art and science for logos.
This is the current update from the BB team: "We have resolved the current issues with the platform. Our workers are slowly working through a fairly large backlog of requests that have been pending since the issues originally started. Things are continuing to stabilize, but will take another hour or 2 before things are back to normal and your requests are fully processed."
So the price is one thing. Granted my personal projects are only just me but some of the projects I've collaborated on before involved multiple people so just for simplicity's sake I moved all of them over (I hate having multiple services for the same type of thing; GitHub is the only exception because their private pricing is really high and it's really difficult to do OpenSource anywhere else).
I'm not going to lie and this is going to sound kinda shallow but I thought GitLab looked nicer too. Granted this wasn't the main thing that made me move but it did help nudge me a little.
Beyond that it's not like git is very different between places so it's kinda hard to differentiate in my opinion.
I find it very interesting that the african american woman and the hispanic man in the jury - both minorities voted "yes" while the predominantly white and asian jurors voted "no". Is it possible that people who are discriminated against understand the subtle biases which cannot be captured by evidence or law.
I think this idea is due to the fact that a lot of Asian people are successful, and this runs counter to the narrative that minorities are being actively held down.
Yes, That's exactly what they are implying.
When it just isn't true.
I remember the incredible pressure I was under to get the double eyelid surgery to succeed in america.
It's just unfair, asians are under attack like this.
Seriously... you had white people tell you to get double eyelid surgery? I'd be surprised if more than a small minority of non-Asian heritage people in North America even know what that is.
Not speaking for the previous poster, but in any case, that severity is not easy to measure. I have the understanding that in the U.S., there is institutional and deliberate discrimination against Asian Americans. For instance, in the admissions to Ivy League colleges. A random article about the issue:
"...students who self-identified as Asian would need about 140 points more on the SAT than their white peers would need to get into elite, private schools. That number jumped to 320 and 450 when Asians were compared to Hispanic and African-American students, respectively."
Asians are not minorities. Asian people account for 60% of the entire world's population. Just because a group faces discrimination does not make them a minority.
"A Minority, a culturally, ethnically, or racially distinct group that coexists with but is subordinate to a more dominant group. As the term is used in the social sciences, this subordinancy is the chief defining characteristic of a minority group."
Troll. You clearly know what is meant in this context. Asians are indeed minorities in the context of the United States, just as Caucasians are minorities in Asia. It is pointless to say that Asians are the world's leading majority, when in an individual context such as this one, they are not.
