There is Linus Torvalds quote I really like which goes, “There are people who point at the moon and say I want to go there. I look at the pothole on the road and I want to fix that before I fall in.”
What I found is if you start looking for societal potholes there are a whole lot of them from climate, immigration, healthcare, etc. However, don’t go into these alone. Find other people and organizations who are already charting the path and figure out how to help them.
- falcor84 2y agoI had a related thought recently as I was trying to set up a new staging environment for $MEANINGLESS_PROJECT at $CORP and was struggling with various packaging errors - wouldn't it be much nicer if instead of working on the project, I could use spend my time on fixing these open source tools to actually work out of the box?
