As usual, anyone without prior familiarity should take all “Boeing News” with a huge grain of salt, because outrage merchants / people trying to look smart get a kick out of spreading very BAU things as if they weren’t.

Yeah. A journalist like Andrew Tate.

Yup. A bunch of coverage is understating this point, and the peanut gallery commenters are taking it hook, line, and sinker. Accidentally logging plaintext passwords, whilst concerningly incompetent, is not on the same level as explicitly d

> just a lie from the start Ugh. Such a naive and simplistic take. People change, for better and worse. And the figureheads that unaccountable nerds love to bash here are sometimes just that, figureheads.

You’d fail an interview for doing a bunch of things that are done in orgs every day. What’s your point?

That is both utterly thought-terminating and irrelevant.

If Matt wants those to be the terms under which WordPress can be used commercially, put it in the license. Oh. Wait. He can’t. Because that’s not his call.

Hopefully this aides WordPress’s slow but definite walk toward irrelevance. Maybe what we end up with will have proper governance instead of what can only be described as a deranged child at the helm.

I assure you that a sizeable portion of Android users also need to charge multiple times a day. Behaviour is everything.

Yup. See also, the massive underdiagnosis of autism in women, especially ‘attractive’ women (I shit you not!). We’re only just now beginning to clear up decades and decades of brushing things off as ‘quirky girl’ traits. Everyone has a gran

I mean…do you plan on outlasting Hotmail? 15 years isn’t that long. Your choices are probably to do it proactively or to do it when your back is against the wall. There is no third option. I’m not going to be like one of those insane nerds

You’re moving the goalposts. We aren’t talking about who has a right to what. We’re talking about what is and what isn’t a deranged dick move.

I’d here to hear what your definition of a non-tiny favour is!

I have no horse in this race, but this blog post seems like the hot-blooded vitriolic ramblings of a crazy person that can’t mentally separate their commercial and open-source endeavours. The outrage definitely feels at least somewhat ‘put

I’m pretty sure that 95% of the positive responses to this thread are people that are conflating the two, and 4% are people overstating the utter importance of running your own ONT, conflating “it sounds fun for a select few mega-nerds and

Yes. Exactly.

Hahahaha! Have you ever done any customer support!? This is not how it works.

Don’t count on that. There are still holes where certain iOS version ranges or iPhones to this day do not have a jailbreak available.

What justifies you using the pejorative ‘knock-off’ when the same descriptor could literally be used for projects that you included in your list? No need to be so disparaging. It feels like you did a quick skim of the README, picked out one

It’s kinda…interesting…to see the sort of people that think that this topic, and point of view, haven’t both been talked about to death. As with all things like this, the closer we get to the end of the line with this WFH discussion, the

Sure, but what you’re describing is not what is being suggested. Responsible disclosure typically involves disclosing publicly after a reasonable period of time.

Yep. It’s just working backwards from some pre existing very negative worldview.

You can’t talk about typical cases and then bring up Uber.

There are other languages in use that are inferior to modern-day JS. JS is far from perfect but it’s also carrying cultural baggage. People that bash JS and proceed to sing the praises of Perl are just…well, at this case it’s clear that thi

Sorry, but have you ever repaired anything? The number of things the price and complexity of a phone, that can be repaired for less than the replacement cost, when you include tools, is…very small.

Your basically-absolutist stance is about as unenlightened as the one that you’re arguing against.

That behaviour sucks and is not acceptable. Sorry that you have had shitty coworkers in corporate America. That’s not what the world is.
