Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I have worked with a couple of these eager shitwits over the years, and they are awful. they'll effortgraft waaaay into a thing that they think is totes the solution, "deliver" it as "done" (aka "here's a branch that already does all that, we can take it live now"), which all so handily allows them to frame any questions/criticism/etc as "don't you think we need ${problem} to be solved?"
the. fucking. worst.
sudden flashback to when $eagerdev pushed a branch that implemented
test-infra
steered by ansible.. in which you needed to write secondary, entirely separate, roles/specs for thetest-infra
thing to "verify"(didn't even try to hook ansible definitions (frankly I wouldn't want to either (but if ansible weren't so fucking shit at what it does _that whole thing wouldn't have been necessary in the first place)))
