Because a bunch of unpaid dudes have to write it

Me too. As a web guy I've been given many .psd files. Photopea has met my needs in terms of telling me the colors, fonts, and spacing.
This is true of a lot of subjects. The old books and videos are better.

I'll never forget going to a basque place in Nevada with that on the menu

I did that assignment. Did you go to uw?
Me and my wife have both had terrible experiences with mushrooms and lsd. Good ones too. But the bad ones left us with anxiety for quite a while.
What is more impactful about data science than web dev? I can tell you as someone who spent years coding C++, it's not 'better' or more impactful. My brother was into AI and got out because he didn't find it was impactful. AI sounds so cool on paper and documentaries, but at it's core it's just statistics and coding put together.
Re:How bad is my gas stove? on Saturday January 15, 2022 @07:38PM (#29952057)
No, the author is not comparing different types of stoves. I never saw anything about induction or wood stoves.
People really nees to understand web development before they start making analogies. Checking view source is not like unlocking a door.
Thanks I always forget
and every state
This is what I was thinking as well
They rarely pay for those stadiums
"was notable for the average IQ of the football players being higher than their average weight"

That is absolutely impossible sorry

I got the first interpretation, but I think yours is what we should be talking about. The responsibility for this bug is not on the maintainer, more so on the company for accepting it into their codebase without any vetting.
Re:“Open source” is broken on Saturday December 11, 2021 @11:52PM (#29527257)
People that are not software engineers would not support it though, right?

This has parallels to unpaid internships and paying college athletes. Seems sketchy that companies are making money off of what are essentially volunteers.
Re:“Open source” is broken on Saturday December 11, 2021 @11:32PM (#29527167)
I was going to say this. Most are just looking for some experience outside school/work and next thing you know they are the only one maintaining something big companies rely on.
Re:“Open source” is broken on Saturday December 11, 2021 @11:31PM (#29527158)
Exactly, the companies should be blamed for using the software not the maintainer for not catching the bug on his free time.
Re:“Open source” is broken on Saturday December 11, 2021 @11:22PM (#29527121)
Right, if this is a huge problem for these big companies they only have themselves to blame, they decided to use software from a guy who writes it in his spare time.
Re:Defund the Police meets the crime wave on Thursday December 09, 2021 @05:56PM (#29504212)
That's the problem here in the Seattle area. First the DA won't charge for many crimes and if they do the judges often don't sentence appropriately
