I missed this one. Was it like Heroku used to be or something?

Keep ass what though? /s

I’m going to have to just write my own one of these fucking things aren’t I?

This is the sort of thing you do to big companies with no morals, doing it to a small open source project is just wrong, they don’t have the manpower or money to redo the investigation you already did.

Given that the dude works for an AI-based security company, and Forgejo and services like it (e.g., codeberg.org) are how you abandon the mess of vibe-coded trash that is GitHub, in my opinion, he has a motivation to pick apart this specific service.

And since javascript libraries tend to be so small and focused

Lol, LMAO even

But Windows is less secure. Two things can be true at once. They are in the original topic too.

The Java ecosystem is massive and decades old and I don’t hear one iota of the shit about maven central that I hear about npm.

I guarantee that npm is full up with vibe coded bullshit at this point as well.

I’m not sure what it even takes to upload a package to npm. Not even a pulse. I honestly never looked into it because the whole ecosystem is so rancid.

EDIT: Look at how many shits in this are optional (and note the overall quality of the article as well): https://dev.to/aneshodza/publishing-your-first-npm-library-51k2. The ecosystem sucks.

The “you’re holding it wrong” of open source software.

Eh, not really dude. Linux cannot possibly account for each and every unique hardware combination that is put to market – some of which are being invented as I type this sentence.

Some hardware is written with firmware that falls outside of standards and specs and some hardware producers are actively hostile to people providing support for their hardware on alternative platforms. Computer hardware and peripherals are a huge market with lots of players. I’m saying if Linux support is important to you, then make it part of your evaluation criteria when you buy new hardware. Or don’t if it isn’t.

Linux doesn’t have significant enough consumer market share to pressure hardware manufacturers into providing support for them, and it also is a free operating system – not one helmed by a massive multi-national corporation that can use billions of dollars to pressure hardware manufacturers into following their whims.

So it’s not software that doesn’t work but hardware that’s weird then? Sure, makes sense.

Next time you buy hardware look it up. Once you’re on stuff that’ll work in Linux you should be able to jump over easily then.

I don’t play any of these particular games but I have other software that doesn’t run on Linux without considerable effort.

Anything that isn’t a game can typically be run on a virtual machine.

This all being said I don’t think even the managers aim to become more evil and more terrible as their goal.

Of course, most managers’ goal is not to become more evil and more terrible. Their goal is to attain more money and power. Becoming more evil and more terrible is simply the means toward those ends.

The people working on the software might not, but the pointy headed managers obviously are reaching for it, and in the end the people working on the software’s opinions don’t matter in the least.

Look man I know what Agile is, and I can guarantee fucking Halliburton is not amongst the most Agile companies in software. I’ve worked for government contractors (not defense contractors, sorry, I like my soul right where it is) and they all claim to follow Agile methodologies and do everything but.

However, even if they were very “Agile”, why the fuck would you plaster their logo on your homepage as if it’s a great thing that they’re using your software?

The company that makes this software is dying to become more evil and/or more terrible than even Atlassian, and I would very much not bother investing my time to learn the nuances of their begging to be acquired by Satan products.

Wanted to look at Taiga a bit and then saw this:

That’s a no for me, dawg.

EDIT: Nah the downvoters are right, Halliburton is one of the “most agile” companies in the world, and has a stellar reputation I should flaunt on my homepage /s

The first season of this show (13 reasons why) was somewhat palatable and was at times maybe even an okay show. The following seasons descended into some of the best hate watching, career destroying garbage you’ve ever seen, if you’re into that kind of thing.

you want to get eat to bite?

Dude, bash is a whole language.

I’ve been using shells for over twenty years and I still pick up new tricks.

But come on, everyone has to do mail merge on a daily basis! /s

I took a single-semester Linux course and had the terminal down pat.

And this is where I stop reading.

EDIT: Seriously guys, this statement reminds me of when the little girl in the original Jurassic Park is like “this is unix, I know this” and then starts flying around the park virtually using “Unix” 3D style.

Last year, I was trying (and failing) to explain the basics of a file system to a designer that was designing a web app version of a fucking file system.

My Linux systems are all pretty RAM rich and almost never even touch swap.
