top | item 45303067 (no title) jacques_chester | 5 months ago At Shopify I was the person who first proposed that we needed to stump up $$$ for RubyGems (and only by implication Ruby Central).This is not what I had in mind and now I'm embarrassed that I helped make it possible. discuss order hn newest choilive|5 months ago Sounds like Shopify has some leverage then to open a line of comms with Ruby Central. "Explain yourselves or we will pull funding" prh8|5 months ago The problem is that Shopify is leveraged by DHH (who is on their board) to be the financial support referenced elsewhere in today’s discourse. Shopify is a bad actor here konnorrogers|5 months ago If that's the case, sounds contradictory to their status as a 501c3 and could get their tax exempt status pulled if it's true. jacques_chester|5 months ago I should add, to clarify: I don't work at Shopify anymore and I'm not speaking for them.
