  • I’m working on a major website migration right now, and was literally hashing things out with timestamps yesterday. If I had to deal with encountering a 24th/no 0th-hour bug, I’d call up the old dev and ask them how they avoid shitting on their loved ones while being such a giant asshole. Make me fucking convert the hours to a number so that I can subtract by one, and then convert it back to a timestamp. I know it’s a simple solution, but I would have definitely first wasted hours trying to figure out why and which of my 50,000 posts was causing my migration to fail.

    Point being, what you call a cosmetic error could singularly fuel my nightmares for a month. Shame on the maintainer for acting so indignant over what I now consider the kindest bug report of all time. I’m so grateful that users like you exist.










  • Must do something useful? You’re the one selling the damn thing. You can’t build a Pinto and then tell people “we have to stop burning to death or we’ll lose permission to keep production faulty cars.”

    There is something inherently wrong with your product, and you can’t even fix it because you’re too busy shoving it down everyone’s throats.

    It’s like you’re trying to bake cookies using pieces of every plagiarized baking recipe, whether or not they’re related. Then, before you’ve actually tasted the cookies, you’re telling everyone to reach into the oven and try using this “basic” cookie to modify and make their own cookies.

    Except the cookies haven’t even baked yet. And before you’ve ever tasted a single fully baked cookie, you’re announcing modifications to your cookie dough recipe based on feedback from your previously undercooked, improperly made cookies.

    Go back to small scale. Let people bake their own cookies at home, and report what they’ve discovered. Try upscaling those recipes, and see if you can make any parts more efficient.

    And quit telling people to eat your tainted cookies that are poisoning everyone, and then telling them that if they don’t start enjoying your cookies soon, then you’re gonna have to shut down your factory.

    Your cookie/Pinto/AI venture deserves to be shut down. Take the L, learn from it, and try again after you figure out how to get it right. Bake a better cookie instead of trying to make better consumers.
