@mitchellh the part about loving github but it not loving you back enough to be the place you can still get work done feels so tragic. Github was so good whole generations of devs treated it like the default choice. We never learned how to use other forges or VC because you don't fix what isn't broken. Complete dominance of a market with excellence squandered in the name of Microsoft juicing everything just a bit more. Enshittification's most profound victim.

@tante Their hiring practices told me the whole project would crash and burn at some point years ago.

@ascherbaum@mastodon.social Mnt reform next

@slightlyoff to be clear I'm so happy with this change. Yesterday the fact I want EU citizenship and Hungarian ancestry was the best way to get there always a bit embarrassing. If Magyar follows through on half of the campaign promises that will take a ton of the sting out of it.

@slightlyoff Just to temper some of the enthusiasm, Peter Magyar is an anti corruption center right reformer. That was a winning strategy in Hungary for a number of reasons and will be good for the country but he won't end conservativesum. He's very similar to Orban on LGBTQ issues and immigration for example. That said he will make me much less embarrassed to get a Hungarian passport (hopefully)

@andrewrk your commitment to human authorship is really heartening. Gives me faith in zig not to blow up when the bubble pops

@jonkoops @notjustbikes how can we expect companies not to abuse us when they can just brake the law whenever and nobody dose anything about it?

@tante wild confession to have never achieved the goal level of skill in your chosen profession.
