This article is about how Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo are blacklisted from Paramount. Which one of those actors are Jewish?
Even if all parties involved were Jewish, I still don’t understand why that would make it not of interest to others that a corporation is blacklisting people on the basis of a mainstream political viewpoint.
Is this realistic though? Every time you update a dependency you would have to read its source (and its source dependencies, and their source dependencies...)
To do that well, it would be someone's fulltime job to read and do security audits on all those dependencies.
Last time I went to one of the Bay Area node meetups, that given meetup was being sponsored by just such a company. Can't remember the name, unfortunately.
The idea was though that you'd feed them your package.json and they'd let you know of any vulnerabilities, iirc. Or maybe they had a private repo of packages they'd checked? Can't remember.
> Glad this won't be an issue going into the next presidential election.
I wish this was true. But I think the decision will increase the discussion of marriage equality in the next election. Just look at the political impact abortion had after the supreme court decided Roe v. Wade. Abortion was used to galvanize conservative votes against liberals and SCOTUS.
Has anyone used a service like https://www.equidateinc.com. They help you "sell" the right to buy your stock options to a third party. From their site:
> Traditional stock sales are time consuming, expensive, and clutter a company's cap table. Now it's easier: the Equidate contract transfers the economic upside and downside of your shares without actually selling them. It honors all exisiting transfer restrictions on your stock, and your identity is kept private throughout the entire process.
> The contracts Equidate has designed have aspects similar to both a derivative contract and a asset-backed loan. The result allows an investor to purchase the rights now to the economic upside/downside of a share now, without going through the complications of adding additional shareholders to the company's cap table or the hassles of a secondary stock transaction, postponing any transfer of shares until the company is ready.
Just for reference, that situation doesn't apply to California because of [Prop. 13](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_13_%2819...). It restricts the annual increases of property taxes to an inflation factor, not to exceed 2% per year.
