this post has been making the rounds on Mastodon, for good reason. it’s nominally a post about the governance and community around C++, but (without spoiling too much) it’s written as a journey packed with cathartic sneers at a number of topics and people we’ve covered here before. as a quick preview, tell me this isn’t relatable:

This is not a feel good post, and to even call it a rant would be dismissive of the absolute unending fury I am currently living through as 8+ years of absolute fucking horseshit in the C++ space comes to fruition, and if I don’t write this all as one entire post, I’m going to physically fucking explode.

fucking masterful

an important moderator note for anyone who comes here looking to tone police in the spirit of the Tech Industry Blog Social Compact: lol

            you know that joke people make about reddit and lemmy where people don’t read the articles

            you know why it’s funny because nobody reads the articles

            you know why people use reddit and lemmy because they don’t have to read the articles because people summarize the source material accurately in the title and summary

            do you read every single article you vote or comment on

            are you a troll

              why in the fuck are you back

              why in the fuck did you think that bragging about not reading the article was a good move?

              oh well, the mysteries of jimmy90 we’ll never find out

              but before you go:

              you know that joke people make about reddit and lemmy where people don’t read the articles

              this isn’t a joke you’re in on, you’re being made fun of. the only joke is how much you don’t get that.
