Open Source Software Community - it's about ethics in Code of Conducts

What people don't understand is corporate management doesn't operate on technical logic and most people in tech won't do things properly. Stopping docker images on dockerhub is a way to force people to buy the commercial offering. Corporate managers don't like hearing you have to compile and dockerize it yourself. They want as much work abstracted as possible because they want to push as much responsibility as possible to someone else. Most places operate like this as they aren't tech companies and technically illiterate managers prioritize covering their asses.

This isn't about whiny hobbists. This is a strategy to force commercial users to pay exorbitant proces for just a few simple features.

They literally put the way to do it themselves in the readme.

I there could be something I'm misunderstanding here. But it looks like someone with basically no knowledge could set it up themselves. I don't think they would even need to build some infrastructure for it. They just need to build it themselves and they can use it exactly how they already did.

You could probably just make a bash script with a few lines, and have that automatically take care of it.

I guess then they are responsible for building it. But it seems like such a small thing to me.

doesn't matter to Your Boss™ when he can just do what's "industry standard" and get off easy when it inevitably fails in a "completely unforeseeable event"
simplicity might be the key to robust software, but the management's top priority is minimizing risk to their own reputation
this means farming out as much as possible to mysterious docker slop and using the most milquetoast technologies available so that they can shuffle programmers around at any time and not get pointed at for any failures

Why are bosses/CEOs niggercattle.

I've always seen Docker Hub and related registries as an uncomfortable risk of 3rd party failure. Very convenient for quick experiments and stuff that doesn't matter, but since I've never bothered running my own registry/mirror, I've never depended on it for unattended critical services. It could vanish at any time. Basic shit, don't rely hard on tech you're unwilling to run your own infrastructure for. Most people don't need to run a bunch of infrastructure, dumb caveman shit is fine if it works and you're in control, but this is easier said than done for autistic homelab larpers who get off on running a bunch of bullshit they don't understand because it's so easy.

I've only had one docker image pull on a cryptominer and it was easy enough to deal with, with docker it didn't have the permissions to do anything harmful

they aren't "niggercattle" per se they just like having money and status and will gladly stomp on everything you love because of market forces and peer pressure
so i guess they are niggercattle in a sense but they're mainly just looking out for themselves
the mark of a true niggercow is getting endlessly abused by people like this for no fucking reason because it's slightly more convenient than learning how to do anything else

It begins..........
and oh boy it's going to be fun updating all of those various incompatible versions of the library statically linked into 8 million different projects

A gut feeling tells me I had something indirectly to do with this class. Maybe I'm giving myself too much credit. Very odd.

What? Impossible. I thought these kind of bugs and CVEs were impossible with rust.

I also like this :
"Making this issue even more of a headache for those relying on these libraries is that tokio-tar is effectively abandoned without upstream maintenance. "

I guess the troon that maintained it found a new shiny thing and thus abandoned the project?
Many such cases and why you should never ever depend on troon software.
 
Where do I go to take a course in white rage?
I want an A+ grade in that class to go on my resume.
 

Just saw this linked in another thread. I thought people that haven't already seen would enjoy this one. Drew Devault calling yet more people fascist. This time Louis Rossman.

I hate that these people (especially Devault) are constantly trying to go after non-political, if anything moderate right, or centrists. I think it's because on some level they know the people aren't actually right wing really, and they know they aren't fascist. It's like they go after these kinds of people because of that. As if to say, this guy that just cares about consumer rights, and privacy, he's even a fascist. So look over at these guys that are actually politically active on the right, there is no question they are fascists and nazis.

It's that or they go after them, because they are politically neutral, or at least fairly close to it, and they can see people on their side even, like them. And it's basically a way to try shielding them from being exposed to things that arent' brain-rotted politically charged bullshit. Because if they are actually around normal people, they might realize people aren't objectively evil if they disagree on something with them.

I really don't know what their actual goal is. Does he just want everyone that isn't explicitly sucking tranny dick to bow to his political sensibilities at all times?

At this point, I hope he keeps going because it's entertaining to me. And I don't think anyone gives a fuck what he says anyway. Anyone except people laughing at him.

There was a big thing at DefCon about it and Meshtastic this year. Also people got to learn how fucking retarded Meshtastic's routing and encryption both are. Some of them went to a quasi-commercial thing called MeshCore, mostly in Britbongistan, others are trying Reticulum since both can use the same hardware, but everything is mutually incompatible.

internet protocol (either version) is the best internet protocol, everything else is gay troonshit
 

They talked about the big outage that happened in this one.

At this point instead of the standup they should just rename this podcast " TheWeb devs disappoint Casey podcast". Because it seems like 80% of these are them talking about the jeet filled code of the internet, and why it sucks, or caused some problem. And Casey gives his assumptions about a what a reasonable way to do it would be. To be disappointed when he finds out, no, they do it the slow, broken way.

I was going to edit this in right after I posted it but the site shit the bed again.

The thing where they started talking about that bad company that won't function at all unless it's connected to the cloud. Talk about next level nigger cattle.

When I first heard about it, I was mad at the company selling that shit product. But I thought about it, and actually Casey hit the nail on the head. The problem is that there is a market for that kind of product AT ALL.

These people need to be robbed of every penny until they finally realize they need to stop throwing money at these scam companies selling anti-products. That turn normal things into useless pieces of shit. That are only good if you want to help someone grow their bot farm.

If someone thinks buying something like that is a good idea. I would argue no you aren't a person. You actually are cattle, and null is right it should be perfectly legal and acceptable to eat them. These people make me lose faith in humanity.

And the best part of Best Protocol? It can ride over any other network protocol there is. Everyone pushes IP over Ethernet, but want to push it over SONET? It can do that. Serial link? Yep. DS3? Of course! CAN? Weird, but okay, sure. IPX/SPX? You sick fuck, let NetWare stay dead, but yes, you can commit such necrophiliac perversions with IP.

Why limit yourself to network protocols?

IP over SCSI is best IP
(SCSI-2 SEND and RECEIVE opcoes. Yes. It is weird as fuck but very cool. IP over pSCSI was also a LOT faster than IP over RS232). There was a time before ethernet was widely available)

Now you have me wishing for some random troon to get into an autistic slap fight on LKML trying to upstream his custom IP over Fibrechannel stack.

Why not both?
A couple computer labs where I went to college had computer labs with PowerBooks. They had SCSI to Ethernet adapters since the only usefully fast port on them was the SCSI port for external expansion.
