I looked her up. I'm pretty sure this is satire judging from the comedic nature of most of her posts.

I wish this wasn't so true.

I'm not saying it doesn't suck for this person, but product market fit is a thing for open source too. If people need it they'll use it and contribute until something better comes along. If not, your idea wasn't the one. That doesn't mean it's not possible. Nearly my whole life runs on open source software, so it's pretty clearly sustainable.

over the years, using "open source" has become an excuse to avoid paying for software

Um. Yes. And to be blunt: obviously. And in return, I give away software I create for free whether people need it or not, and try to give back in the form of contributions too. But I've never once given up my day job for it. Would that be nice? Maybe. But open source software is more frequently sustained by passionate people using and expanding it for their own projects and not by expecting people to pay you for your efforts when you're likely not paying (nodejs, github, ahem) for the software you're building it on anyway.

Taxes have that feature too, sadly. No system is perfect.

It's probably a whole set of bots and the responses to "this needs to be a coffee mug" are some other account saying "I found one!" and that's the whole point of the comment chain. Someone has a crappy mug to sell and constructs scenarios that seem natural ish to introduce it.

Ah yes, the famous Dictator For A Day Program where the guy who wants to be a dictator famously chooses to not use his powers to install himself for life.

Sounds like a real stand-up neighborhood. Shot and bleeding kid asking for your help? Better neutralize the threat before getting help.

It's like the whole neighborhood cosplays as cops/soldiers and thinks everything unfamiliar is a threat.

Joke's on you because they're all still mutable objects behind the reference.

How am I supposed to keep track without the two letter suffix that's non sequential?

Uh hello, it's called jacktivism.

X gon' take it from you

Spez get in trouble for sending unsolicited dick pics and needs to drop some tables again?
