Yes, it's being praised here (however this is also in the "hobby" context, supporting my argument somewhat).
But what I am saddend, more than annoyed, about, is that it's extremely lopsided in general.
I don't have a tally, but reading HN and other tech sources (HN is not an outlier here), these kinds of stories are buried under the mountain of articles and resources that hype up the "software industrial complex" (for lack of better description).
- mattgreenrocks 6y agoSoftware industrial complex is a great description. Everything is about software; thus the collective incentivizing of writing more and more software. We see it as a bad sign when the commits stop flowing. Despite the source being there, it is viewed as stagnant. Nobody even stops to ask if the project is simply done, and doesn't need anything else.
