Someone with absolutely no technical background, a recipe for disaster.

Rhiannon worked with Ruby Central for a bit, left a few weeks ago, and just shared this: https://bsky.app/profile/rhiannon.io/post/3lz6zcflg2s26

Oh wow. I'm absolutely alarmed after reading that. To be honest, I had been wondering if some of the PR disasters this year could be laid on Rhiannon's shoulders, but it sounds like the rot is coming from the top.

Interesting. It worked a few hours ago. Sorry, I didn't make a copy of the text.

her followup post:
Deleted my post, which I published before Ruby central released their blog explaining things.
It’s ultimately not my place to say or speculate about what’s going on.
It’s obviously a disastrously bad roll out or whatever is happening and I hope they are able to make things right w the community.

Opposed to hiring someone with a technical background but no experience running a non-profit?

It's easier to learn to run a non-profit coming from a technical management background than it is for an MBA to learn to be an engineer.

As opposed to someone with experience with both?
