thank you for the compliment - I'll frame it ❤️ I would love to give a talk titled: "how to succeed as an impostor in open source" I feel I've been the recipient of a lot of privilege, kindness and grace from others, not just in the open source world but from my family too. roe.dev/ama #ama

how are you such a prolific developer? Everything you do is legendary. Like what is your secret (is it mozart or drake)? Asking for a friend. Text on a grainy yellow-to-fuchsia-to-blue gradient.

1️⃣ the best authors of libraries have 'felt the pain' and are making it better 2️⃣ the 'curse of knowledge' means authors (can) become less insightful over time 3️⃣ a lack of domain expertise IS something you have to offer ... so, contribute to address a pain you have 🙏 roe.dev/ama #ama

i use a oss libs all the time for work and personal projects. i’ve always wanted to contribute to these tools to understand them better, and along the way also maybe prove to myself i’m not an impostor lol

all advice tends towards “contribute to address a pain you have” but this is really tough for me since I am of the belief that the authors know best. they’re the domain experts. why should i go against their design. you know? this predisposition i feel restricts me from being able to confidently contribute to tools.

do you think there still is a place for me somewhere? is this long? i really hope not oops. Text on a grainy yellow-to-fuchsia-to-blue gradient.

this is a relief. I was worried I was too anodyne or that I hadn't made myself clear enough.

please, for the sake of humanity, never publish anything ever again, no matter how short or long, no matter how well thought out you thought your thoughts might be. the amount of pure stupidity resounding through your voice alone is enough to categorize you as unwell and literally retarded. imagine being you. absolute loser with loser energy through-and-through. also, nuxt is/will always be lame. ugh.

I'm a big fan of workmux and its built-in sandboxing. I want to make sure that that there's a level of containment when I'm running code I've not written. the same is true for any agent I run. it gets a read-only gh token + a network-enforced domain allow-list.

I remember you mentioned that you use a devcontainer setup with workmux. Can you share your setup so others can use it as a source of inspiration? Text on a grainy yellow-to-fuchsia-to-blue gradient.

a tweak: open source is ABOUT people … with quality as a means to that end we have the rare freedom to practise the craft + the joy of building with friends, for its own sake. I hope open source communities flourish – we must look after our mental health more than ever. but a cautionary note 👇

Could it be true, that Open Source is the last bastion to care about quality, while businesses need to be fast and care less, cause they need to compete… What do you think about that? Thanks in advance. Text on a grainy yellow-to-fuchsia-to-blue gradient.

not sure how many years of my life this interaction took off 😆 to be clear, if you bully _anyone_, whether a maintainer or a user, in a repo I maintain, you will be banned from interacting with all orgs I administer on github. and if you see bullying behaviour anywhere, please report it 🙏

[danielroe]

so, just to be clear, you won't bully maintainers in future, but will provide genuine reproductions when you open issues?

I don't want you to leave with the idea that bullying will work. it won't.

[screenshot of previous post from user]

no they also closed it because in nuxt is a bottleneck as they said

is very comfortable to omit principal part

I remember how in mikro-orm i found bug. I write to b4nan, he began to cry like now people cry, after many bullying from me to him he found that is a bug in node as i remember and wrote to node maintainers. Node
maintainer confirmed bug and pached... That is how here all work

[response from user, name obfuscated]

Only if devs will stop create buggy soft and write every where use our soft it is the best 🙂

Bullying is when someone repeatedly and on purpose uses words or actions to hurt, scare, or control another person who has less power.

You think I have more power than author of some lib. Stop they are bulling me and I don't known!

Please say to all to stop bulling me and make things to just work
