I get it. Now you can pay $50k per year for medication, so it is not really a deadly disease! And we need socialism so everyone can afford it!

Got I hate this cultural war so much!

Well, it could still fit under consent and rape. Not disclosing such important information before unprotected sex is kind of rapey!

It is also crisis of trust. Western medical companies, Bill Gates foundations etc do not have best reputation in Africa. There were all sorts of experiments done on people, some medications were not as effective as promised... And there is a heavy political and cultural interference, that is just not acceptable in Africa!

And Blue states are decriminalising spreading of deadly disease.

I really hate in US everything has to be political. Other countries are not like that.

At this point who cares? It is just a tool. You could tell it to write short bullet points, or some sort of haiku.

Not in my experience. It just increases load on maintainers, as beginner moves up on complexity ladder and requires more support.

Plus it is a liability. They may get offended by something, and start a smear campaign.

RTFM is perfect solid answer. It is great repelent on drama. If you take it politely, I will even point you to specific chapters.

That is most likely correct. I am guessing here.

But it is most common motivation maintainers face. Another one is some sort of "PR notch hunting".

And just because I am in maintainer role, does not mean I signed up for mentorship role. If you want proper support, I do consultations at $200/hour.

Many maintainers are unpaid volunteers!

> You Don’t Know How To Code In C

> I started using two decades ago...use old school style C on microcontrollers regularly!

Those two statements do not necessary contradict each other. C evolves and skills required on large programs are vastly different from microcontrollers.

Look from other side of an open-source developer and maintainer. You have to spend several hours polishing unfinished Pull Request, only to give other person credit as a "commiter". If you throw away the PR, and instead spend 10 minutes writing it yourself, you "stole" the credit.

Many people do Pull Requests, only to pad their CV! Drama like this is why I do not accept any patches.

It is amazing what passes for "innovation" today.
