> The project survived my becoming a parent in December and taking 2 months off to bond with my baby daughter Lily. For me, it was a great stress test of Zulip’s catch-up experience; I was able to catch up on over 20,000 messages of chat history when I returned, following up on more than 100 conversations that needed my attention.
So is that what you've supposed to do when you become a parent? Stop doing everything else for two months, than never look at your child again? (Not saying the person did this.)
- snowwindwaves 9y agoI think people normally take some time off work when they have a child. Does that seem strange to you?
- fiatjaf 9y agoI asked first.
- dsr_ 9y agoExplaining my downvote here: this doesn't add anything valuable to the conversation. Either you have a defensible point or you don't; this sort of behavior suggests that you are more interested in having an argument than a discussion.
- fiatjaf 9y agoYes, but only because the previous commenter had that position also, by asking me the stuff he did. I hope you have downvoted him also.
- rkangel 9y ago> than never look at your child again On what basis do you even suggest that that's what happened? They say that they took 2 months off after the birth of their child (which seems reasonable) and then had to catch up on their messaging when they got back.
