I am hugely Facebook critical but don't think it's appropriate to post about how everyone who works there is evil/should leave/etc. Just because you personally wouldn't take a job there everyone has their own reasons. Direct your anger at the leaders and company level.

While I’m on a rant. Engineers who say they don’t have time for accessibility. Im flattered that you think I’m so much better at software engineering than you are.

I don’t think people realise just how prevalent this sort of thing is… We get them to the Django board all the time too. We’re all volunteers, and it can take a toll. twitter.com/mikemcquaid/st…

Being an open-source maintainer in 2021: since yesterday I have: - people in my personal DMs calling me a douche for not helping them debug their problems in my DMs - people saying “f*ck you Homebrew” (their censoring, not mine) in my personal email for a new Homebrew release

Strange you should say that. The protocols I use are alive and well, and they give me part of what I need from a community. I do feel good too, and that is part of the story, but to dismiss something you personally don't care for or use seems uncalled for.

For me, the Indieweb is two things: a collection of concepts and ideas (e.g. OwnYourData); and a community with great people. Both offer me a lot, so please don't say "never provide anything to anyone" - There's more alive than dead.

Still blows my mind how people increasingly think the answer to their OSS problems is to harass and abuse the maintainers (aka who can fix their problems). The abuse gets exponentially worse towards non white/cis/men maintainers. This is the “normal”. OSS is broken. twitter.com/mikemcquaid/st…

Thanks to @JamieTanna for stepping up up as a @jenkinsci JobDSL plugin maintainer! And kudos to @daspilker for leading it for almost ten years 🙇 JobDSL is one of the well documented and stable plugins and it is also essential for the configuration as code ecosystem in Jenkins

Just to update on this - I'm a maintainer now, it's been released as 1.78 this morning, and I'll see over the coming weeks if there's anything other high-priority to ship 🚀 (jvt.me/mf2/2021/10/jy…)

I hate reading other people's code. Mine is so clean and well structured. Everything is commented neatly and laid out logically. This thing I'm dealing with is a mess. Cryptically named functions, irrelevant comments, multiple styles. Who is this "© Terence Eden 2019" guy anyway?

This is an excellent point I never thought about. Why in the world don't we use SSH keys more?

Post details

OMG YES YES YES If you are into signing git commits, here's your answer! Also, I'm happy any time I see SSH signatures in use. Every developer has SSH keys! We have robust tooling and hardware for them! They are simple! You can use ssh-keygen(1) to produce and verify them.

I've transitioned from "read docs to learn how to do the thing" to "just give me a repo that does all the things" as my preferred way from picking up a new tool/API. unfortunately, the % of my time that I'm frustrated because the way I want to learn is missing hasn't changed.
