Sure buddy. Not only Debian but the kernel itself too.
Those immature unproven little projects and their silly "best practices". What do Debian or the kernel know about building and maintaining bedrock software?

- rc00 2y agoThese are some of the sentiments I'm seeing where people are tired of Rust and the related crowd. Very young and/or very inexperienced Rust evangelists are showing up to experienced, long-term, and stable projects and effectively dictating that they know better because "the future" is on their side. And then when they are rebuffed, they turn to the mentally unhealthy echo chamber that is social media for reinforcement. It is a cycle of unhealthy and even toxic behavior. I'm fortunate that I haven't seen this with my mentees but it does appear that there are non-mainstream social media platforms allowing these problems to fester rather than addressing them head-on.
- Brian_K_White 2y agoApologies I got this kinda backwards. The Debian article was written from Debians perspective not bcachefs. "sure buddy" and the rest of the sarcasm was directed at bcachefs.
