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.
Nirav Patel is of Indian origin, DHH is Danish, Vaxry is Polish, and this whole "thing" is smug white Americans telling them what to think. No one sees any irony in this?
No? I don't think their nationality matters. And there's even a connection. All three countries have governments enacting extreme nationalist immigration policies (Poland:suspension of asylum rights, Denmark: atated goal of no asylum seekers, India: the prime minister is part of an ethnonationalist paramilitary organisation who has passed legislation blocking islamic asylum seekers from getting accepted).
Nationalism is strong in all three countries, and when nationalism is strong, so are the most extreme expressions of it.
I guess it's hard when people don't share your politics
