There is a difference between

> Actually, Google Code was never trying to win.

> It was simply trying to prevent SF from becoming a shitty monoculture ... . Google was 100% consistent on this ...

And

> One of our goals is to encourage healthy, productive open source communities. Developers can always benefit from more choices in project hosting.

These are not the same. One of these makes it out to be the singular goal. The other does not.

Yes, there is a difference, but one thing you should do when you see this difference and think it is critical consider whether you are parsing words way too strongly in a colloquial discussion on hacker news.

I'm trying to participate in a discussion. Not write comms that go to hundreds of millions of people. That is why the rules of hn are very clear on assuming the best, not the worst.
