Gambling with OTHER PEOPLE’S money.

You win, you take a cut. You lose. Someone else suffers.

These people destroy everything for greed.

Samesies! The Garmin battery is starting to deteriorate after about 3 years use though. That said I don’t regret buying it, it’s been great.

Ding ding.

Took way too long to find a response from someone that actually does the work.

Most of this discussion is just the neuro spicy and olds angry that everyone doesn’t do it the “right” way.

I bet there are billions of hours wasted by people trying to make the perfect way to document and discuss stuff, while the answer is “it’s hard, tedious, and pretty manual work to create and manage good documentation”.

But nobody wants to do it because it has and always will suck.

I’m amused to know that I can look through old irc chats talking about how forums are the death of foss projects. Or mail lists complaining that everyone is using IRC wrong…

Yeah I’m indifferent to discord as a platform. It’ll eventually be enshitified and people will move on.

The bummer is that it’s enabling people to be poor at documentation in a whole new way.

That said, if Discord went away tomorrow most software projects would still have garbage documentation, because most software projects are ephemeral at BEST.

Fuck Spez… amirite ? Guys?
