Reminds me of the kerfuffle about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tai%27s_model, where someone managed to get published what is basically the Trapezoidal Rule for numerical integration, and of course had to name it after themselves.
Oh my god.
If I remember correctly, in the "Tia's rule" case specifically, her coworkers even defended her for the whole thing - implying of course that she was being ridiculed for this, making neither side of this story look very pretty if you ask me.
Also why people don't "RTFM". Yes, I can read through the pages of prose you wrote how you implemented e.g. bog standard role based auth. Or I can just brute force try using all the related looking commands and see what happens...
It is telling how someone can think their idea is so novel, and rather than doing research go ahead and announce it like it is something new.
But as far as being alien to me, any time someone pats themself on the back with public posts about anything is alien to me. I'm fully aware that if I could think of it, someone else out there has already done it. The number of times I've done an search for something I'm working on that hasn't had a post of someone else doing it approaches zero.
