It’s not a big deal, and often it’s literally just about whitespace so that we don’t have fifteen different indentation models and bullet syntaxes.

It has 100% happened before and just never been admitted to. I have both 1st hand dealt with the aftermath and heard from other smaller companies about it. I work at medium sized MSP and disaster recovery is in my wheelhouse.

Usually some excuse about being more accessible from someone that just doesn’t want to leave their own comfort zone - non professionals playing at being professional after coming across our github. See also: complaints about not having an installer download (strictly clone and build)

C#itheads - those are the guys that show up to the emulation project I work on insisting we would drastically improve by nuclear rewriting millions of lines of code into c# (or another language occasionaly).

It’s a 20ish yrs old c++ program, we’re never doing it but someone will show up trying to push the topic every couple of months.

Its partly like that but its MORE so that they are utterly convinced that all thier troubles including that they are poor is some other groups fault, and even when they do have doubts they are unable to express them without fear of losing thier status in thier in-group. So they will keep on voting against thier own interests and blaming the wrong people for the results.

My grandparents imigrated with all 12 of thier kids (my aunts and uncles), you got a problem -lots of hand motions- wid that? Eh? Eh?

But seriously who started all this topping gatekeeping, pizza has spread all over the world with variations evrywhere.

I’m italian from a family so italian we’re all walking stereotypes, and pinapple+black olive is my favorate pizza combination.

Anything good for is but not thier bottom line: OH HEAVENS NO, THE EXPENSE!

Anything they can profit from: this is essential.

Same is actually true for most fossil fuel production now - only has profits because of subsidizing.

The folks profiting spend part of that profit to pay for politicians to continue the cycle.

Pretty much exact argument much of the south made about ending slavery before the american civil war happened…

Yup. And it wasn’t money they would have gotten anyway so big N gets mad about nothing.

Doesn’t lose them money, the used game woudn’t make them money anyway which is why they lobbied to try and make reselling used games require a royalty or be illegal for years before everything became digital.

As for emulation they lie and call emulation itself illegal (the copies may be but emulation itself is not) because then they can’t pull a disney and “vault” old games on their digital storefronts and make you buy it again when they decide to just up shut down the previous server when they launch the next console.

They don’t want us to own the things we pay for. They want us to rent them while not realizing it.

Yup. And seconded.

I used starcraft references in mine till the project lead demanded I knock it off.

The protoss quotes were perfect.
