You can't have one without the.... other.
Exactly. Disgusting and extreme brutality on both sides but especially from the Israeli side and for generations now.
Well I've been a part of the Sourcehut (one of his major projects) community for many years and have interacted with him many many times. I've never found him to be a drama queen. Is he outspoken? Yea. Does he stand up for what he believes in? Yea. So he usually goes against the grain and catches flack for it.
His last article, which is referenced in the current article, gives context:
This is ideal for me. I refuse to use Discord period and only use Slack only for direct client work (when they request that we use it.)
Mailing lists are great imho but I'm older than most people probably on these communities. So I'm very familiar with this.
I do think a ticket tracker is useful/required though.
At this point, who cares when LibreOffice exists? Though I do get the potential confusion for newbies but there is so much written out there on this topic I feel like it's harder and harder to get confused on the two.
I live in Nicaragua (I'm American) and can say that while yes he does have his critics in Central America, he's overwhelmingly supported in El Salvador and the people are actually safe, which is not normal for the last several decades.
Sometimes extreme measures are needed. It's like he said when this started, (paraphrasing) "Where were all these countries when we needed help. Where was their training, money, equipment, etc.? Our people are dying and we've had enough! So the world ignored us before and now they want to criticize us. We don't care."
Squatted 315 for the first time in like 9 years since I had a injury that scared me to push too hard. Felt good!
I hope I never have to look for a job again but with the way my business has gone lately, I may need to start thinking about it in a few years.
I've also been coding for 25 years, most of that professionally. I'm not sure I could pass a tech interview.
We run our own SourceHut instance because I hate all the social dopamine crap built into GH. I hate you need an account just to participate in a repo. I hate the heavy UI (sometimes it's better than others).
Also, srht supports hg as well as git.
This is a fair point. Still, something about this idea feels gross to me too. I'll stick with my tofu + spices heh.
