I guess it's hard when people don't share your politics

    It's a reason why you and your organization should depend 0% on open source software because any open source software could be ruined by a bunch of people who don't get along.

    In my mind DHH and the people who are still fighting with him years later are all bad people and if I had the power I would cut them off from the net completely, not even let them have a credit card.

      It seems plausible that the value accrued by any given extreme response to binary [discrete-classed] emotions is upper-bounded by zero

      One good thing about opensource: there's realtime leakage of how things are run so wiseguys have time to fork and/or pivot.

      Some people factor that attention premium into the routine cost of a sw business. Because the other scenario-- the downside of depending on proptech-- is not recoverable without a team of lawyers

      I find it heartening that lack of backprop from reality to character is (albeit not always career ending) still generally relationship-ending..

      Maybe similar mechanisms can be developed wrt intra-/inter-org relations.
