founder of the free software foundation
eh
A dude I respect
I mean, much respect, sure
I'm not not a fan
He's a goofy guy
for sure
He's a pretty chill dude for someone with that much stress
I started learning science again because of him
i've spent the last 3 days fucking with shitty open source shit.
Its a great concept that always fails to land
Haha, we developed a system a few years ago that we named in his honour
I'm running 100% free software on my computer right now
Edited all my videos with open source software
fucking bazel and maven and openjdk have all fucked me in the past 3 days
What's wrong with openjdk?
NEVER upgrading my system again
nothing, as long as they don't introduce a bug
I can understand where you're coming from
And use maven all the time
I was going to say, I use Maven too and never have an issue
I usually go with open source first, but sometimes ever little thing you want to do seems to have some damn barricade preventing your advancement
I'm also on linux and so there's often all kinds of obscure ways to go about getting things to run the way they were intended
Can't run this program without this other one, yada yada
Welcome to windows dlls my friend
At least I can compile 99% of the software I need if it's not available compiled for my system
It's all definitely functional, you just generally have to know what hoops to jump through to get it working just the way you want
It's not generally for people who want to do advanced thing but don't have advanced knowledge
If in doubt, build your own. That's what we do
Yeah
I just want shit that works.
I don't want to configure shit.
I don't wnat to spend hours fucking around with files hacking shit together.
I want to execute a command and go on with my day.
Good luck with that 😃
like the people at work have this hardon for adding on new shit all the fucking time
Holy shit I spend almost no time fucking around when I want to use software.
first it was bazel
and docker
and kkuberneties
and minikube
and fucking helm now
