| schestowitz[TR2] | "To the political activists within NixOS: | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | I get it. You are using NixOS as a tool for pushing your political agenda. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | You feel the need to yell, and rant, and throw temper tantrums about people who don’t share your exact opinions. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | And you are happy to see NixOS burn to the ground if it earns you Virtue Signaling Points(tm). | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | But I would consider it a personal favor if you could dial back the crazy… just a few notches. There is a lot of other news in the Tech world right now and I simply do not have the time to cover your most recent attempt at destroying your Linux Distro today. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Perhaps you could put a lid on it and save up all your Righteous Leftist Anger (tm) until some time in December? That’s usually a slower news month and I might be able to pencil you in for some coverage at that time." | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | "Ubuntu *could* reverse their decision to integrate the Rust core utility clones (at least until they are actually ready and tested)… but I doubt they would do that. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The problem is, the decision to include the Rust Clones was not done for the usual reasons a software organization does things. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Rust Clones do not benefit end users. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Nor attract new customers. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Nor do they save the company money or resources (in fact the added support load of in-polished software likely would increase costs). | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | The Rust Clones were forced into the system, before they were ready, for the same reasons cult members make displays of their faith. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | Removing the Rust Clones now would be seen as an attack on that cult — the Rust Cult prohibits the questioning or criticism of Rust — so the Rust Clones will likely stay in Ubuntu. | Nov 14 02:34 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | It’s bizarre, but that appears to be the situation." | Nov 14 02:34 |
