I don’t have any proposal because it’s not my problem to solve. I’m no businessman or economist.

The free, open internet keeps chugging along (for better or worse) regardless of how many ads I block. Especially those companies who run ad networks.

Feel free to make a moral judgement on those who block ads, because most everyone who is blocking ads has already made a judgement about online advertising and its surveilling bedfellows.


here’s a terrible MOD I adapted from sheet music ca. 1994 (best guess). I have no idea why this is on the internet.

I don’t understand how you’re supposed to cultivate new maintainers if you shut down contribution.

Is this a sponsored project where maintainers are just hired?


Encourage forks and wait for actual experienced, committed maintainers of the fork to emerge I suppose is the way. In essence the maintainers are saying the path to trusted contributor and then to maintainer via outside unsolicited pull requests is less useful because the signals of a committed person in that path have become less useful.


You are also not cultivating any new contributors by just accepting slop the submitter did not write or understand.

I guess they will have to introduce some kind of trust-based system.


it’s “crapshoot” as in the game of craps, meaning “it’s a gamble” but crap-chute is pretty good too. just not for this sentence


> > the whole process of understanding one's personality, how they think, and whether or not they'll be a fit for the company

It's a chute you shovel crap into (or out of), with no justifiable expectation of useful results. The interview process as a whole is a crapshoot, but the process of understanding the candidate is a crap chute.


It's a crapshoot whether or not you end up in a crap chute of a company.

For fans of Diablo/Grim Dawn/ARPGs. Really impressive effort by a solo dev.


Seconding this. Great game. My favorite part is the xp modifier you get from really long kill streaks, something that exists in many games (like diablo) but really adds a fun twist to the grindy combat.
