With every passing hour it becomes more and more evident that Musk has the mentality of a 5-year old and has only built successful businesses by getting lucky finding the right people and throwing money at them. He has no idea what he's doing.

Vine hasn't been touched in years. Infrastructure it relied on is going to be gone now. Making it work with the new infrastructure is going to involve significant rewriting. Demanding that be done in 2 months is unrealistic and is more evidence Musk has no idea what he's doing.

The Twitter situation is basically last year's Freenode implosion, except without the convenience of a newly stood-up replacement and with more Dunning-Kruger afflicted VCs

BREAKING: Months after Elon Musk's ex-wife left him for a trans woman, Musk has completed his takeover of Twitter and immediately began pushing back against Twitter's policies prohibiting misgendering and deadnaming of trans people.

Hi Hacker News, please go read the thread before shitting on me because you think I'm entitled. I'm literally getting replies like:

> No, I want you to author a proper MFD device.

With *zero* indication of what 'a proper MFD device' is nor any suggestions that are actionable.

Like dude, if you aren't going to step into my world and actually understand what I'm trying to do here, just suck it up and ack my patch.

It is not my job to drag you kicking and screaming until you either give up or have a lightbulb moment.

I have no problem with normal code review comments, things that actually point out issues or possible things to improve. But endless arguments about overall architecture or goals from maintainers who clearly haven't stopped to think about it get very, very tiring.

I try to write the best possible code to solve the problems at hand. It is *very* frustrating to have to defend it over hours/days/weeks/months because the other side doesn't bother to actually stop and think about the problem we're trying to solve and why.

Between this and drive-by reviewers that make nitpick comments (most of which are wrong), no wonder stuff takes forever to upstream.

It should *not* take email chains that don't even fit on my screen to upstream a 1700-line patchset that implements 3 kernel modules.

I got credited by Apple for a security report!!! ✨✨

Now you know what I was doing that time I took one week off of streaming! 😊

I can't talk about the details yet, but look forward to a stream all about CVE-2022-32947 in the future! 💫
