It’s always been this way. Except that it was kernel developers arguing with kernel developers over C code. Now it’s relative newcomers arguing with kernel developers over Rust code that the kernel devs don’t necessarily care about. Of course it’s going to be a mess.

A fork is of course possible, but operating systems are huge and very complex, you really don’t want to alienate these folks that have been doing exclusively this for 30 years. It would be hard to keep the OS commercially viable with a smaller group and having to do both the day to day maintenance, plus the rewrite. It’s already difficult as it is currently.

Rust will be a huge success in time, long after the current names have lost their impetus. This is not a “grind for 4 years and it’s done” project.

Hey, so I finally reached the ashlands. Yeah, still think the trailer is misleading. Like everything about it, except the staff of protection.

Unfortunately, the ashlands is the most boring place in the whole game (haven’t reached the castle thing with a beacon though). Fast skeleton, slow skeleton, archer skeleton. Troll spider, big dog, fire blob. Inventory full within 30s because there’s 15 different types of material to collect. Maybe I should be pulling a cart around like in the trailer.

Yeah, sorry but this one is just counterproductive. Guys just don’t give a fuck. No one is going around “ooh, what if I pretend I can’t do this task so she then has to do it”. That’s just patriarchy and gender roles for you. Maybe try to have a conversation about the subject of chores without sticking the “you’re evil” tag on the other person. Well, for anything in life really. Also mental load is there for anyone, I see no point in bringing it up in this context. The dudes have to deal with a fair share of mental load as well, specially with all the emotional neglect and immaturity.

There’s human fossils where it’s clear they poured molten bronze or something into a mans skull to patch the broken bone. Using metals to mend bones has been a practice since ever basically.

Yes, and it was my first job out of university. Incredible. It has set the standard for me. Everyone extremely polite, restrained, no oversharing, no politics discussions in the office, no drama. People would just gravitate towards those that shared their views and would have coffee breaks at different times than other groups. Everyone was painfully aware of how bad these things can get, so we all made an effort to keep the environment light.

I just block everything that has the words “news” or “meme” in them. That already avoids you 90% of bad news and disgrace.

No, not misleading at all, that’s fine.

People who use spaces are not taping space space space space space space space space. Their tapping the tab key all the same.

Wow, super newsworthy. Even included some bs about “colorful language”. Can’t let a thing like that go by without trying to entice some internet drama.

Option 3, final answer.

Good, I already don’t answer the phone anyway.

Mate, just make sure you’re not getting into trouble with all that positive thinking, ok? Take care.

Good, write another one of these in a couple of months instead of stalking her and you’re set.

But really, you’re young, that’s how these things go. Don’t overthink it.

No one cares. Adoption of operating systems in the real world is not done based on popularity charts. Those only serve for memes and flamewars.

I’m sorry, but all of this was caused by your defensive and mildly aggressive response when he implied your patches were broken.

That whole PR was already confusing with all the rework and mentions of other people’s code and the inclusion of good code along with bad code.

When it was suggested that the foruns would be a good place I read it more like a “stop spamming us with experimental code”. Your suggestion to remove the experimental tag led them to think you were trying to shut them down and push stuff anyway.

This has all been a major misunderstanding. The fact that you took that so poorly (IMO, since you’re even posting about it here), means that maybe you should try to take a step back when this sort of thing happens, try to look at things from their perspective, and generally don’t assume ill intent.

Open source is hard because it is a communication heavy discipline and not everyone is used to that.
