cevn··on Response to Nodejitsu NPM Trademark
Well, before Jason Smith started to try to monetize npm, I would have said nobody. It's open source, right?

After, well, he's the first one to do it, and it's not as though anyone else was in that space. So to me he has a better claim than Nodejitsu.

It's possible that my knowledge is incomplete though so if anyone knows better please correct my misconceptions.

I can't really see Nodejitsu's claim here. Also, why didn't nodejitsu voice their reservations over his use of npm before Jason decided to monetize the project? I feel as though either we don't know the whole story or Nodejitsu is pulling a fast one on the community.

cevn··on Note from Don Knuth – bug(s) in MetaPost?
Yeah, not exactly sure this is newsworthy. He's not even reporting a bug, just responding to one.

Keep being alive Dr. Knuth.

That's true. Another one mentioned in this thread is hackerrank: https://www.hackerrank.com/ - this one offers way more languages, except for rust, the one I'm actually learning :(

I have to agree that the math is a bit too much. If you feel like doing algorithms / data structures work, though, perhaps leetcode will appeal to you: http://oj.leetcode.com/
