Do you know what's corny?
Calling things "corny."

@atpfm @siracusa For obscure projects embedded in enterprise software, sure, dedicate support. But what does an employee assigned to sudo, XZ, Eggert's time zone files, or PHP actually do all day? Submit PRs that never get accepted? Watch for security issues that rarely emerge? Engineers are scarce resources, regardless of company size. Isn't it reasonable to assume that if sudo/XZ/PHP break, the whole industry breaks, and we'll collectively deal with it?

“Entering detachedly, observing a person, you can sometimes so travel down the filament that you might wake up to find yourself walking off inside them, become them, so much by sympathy, yourself forgotten, and seeing the world from where they stand. Or looking more personally you catch the gleams of response to you and break into flower, building the arches of which our human life is made. A gleam from them gives you a foothold, one from you gives them more root, till the branches can grow and each stands, a tree, in the other’s atmosphere. This between you is an arch, by which each is drawn out upright; beneath which the heavenly bird flies, whose roost is not on this sphere.

“Held in your hand a person may blossom, break open and become transfigured. If everyone knew how ravishing they were the street would be blind with light.”

The article says that Brackley/Jackson was a poet and this one foray into prose was poorly received, which is too bad, because I would kill multiple men with a hammer to be able to write prose like that

ron. slurp him.

this isn't even for a thing I care about per se, I was just surprised to learn that a thing I wrote like 20 years ago and occasionally glance at has been doing it based on gmtime this whole time, since I usually only look at it in the morning
