But yeah, you're better off in math if you can make it make sense on a philosophical level. That I agree with.
I found the title a bit misleading in that regard.
That's what I meant when I said that it spoke volumes about what you consider to be a contribution in FOSS. If you think that saying 'oh, I forked a dead project to keep it alive' and posting it without having accomplished anything is anything more useful or productive than pointing out how useless that is, then I'm afraid your definition of contribution is as shallow as your understanding of constructive criticism.
On a more personal note, I'm growing weary of spoon-feeding you. It is not very complex yet you still struggle to grasp the simplest of explanations.
The fact that you'd rather have me shut up speaks volume about what you consider a contribution in FOSS, and frankly I hope it's not a reflection on how you approach the real world, because you're in for a rude awakening.
So yeah, pardon my lack of enthusiasm towards someone who says stuff.
Furthermore I think that this sample is exactly what can discourage an open source project maintainer to stop development and work on something else, maybe something closed and private, which is bad for open source generally.
So people need to be more patient and read the code of conduct of any project they want to interact with.
Am I not getting something here or is this sentence not make sense?
Insanity described in that post.
My impression is that she's dissatisfied with the leadership of the project, and voices her many concerns publicly instead of working it out or working towards constructive collaboration.
I can understand that to a certain degree but if/when you do that, don't start by saying that 1 night effort means 1 night fix.
That's a grotesque expectation.
I like that they sort of get that as a revelation towards the end of the post, but they let it go way out of hands, enough to ruin it.
