Yeah, I do @musllibc, FOSS & infosec stuff. But now is not the time for a mostly-/only-tech Twitter feed.

      so many conflicts between people discussing technology are essentially A: "I love X! it lets me do so much" B: "X is horrible! it handles none of the edge cases properly and has large negative externalities" and neither of them is wrong? all technology is flawed, much is useful

      I'm pretty fine with both existing until A becomes A': "Since I love X, everyone must use X, even all you B's!" (see: systemd, etc.)

          I agree, but I see a lot of Bs getting in fight with As without ever trying to understand their perspective infosec is full of Bs

          A is a "dumb user" mentality (nothing pejorative about that): "I want this to work without me needing to understand". B is a "power user / hacker" mentality: "I want this to be done right for all cases". Different perspective. And I'm often an A until I take a look at the code 😒

          It's not as clear cut. For example, I know how disgusting Linux is inside, and yet I love it for how much it lets me achieve.

          That's true of me as well, but it's clearly because I don't have the expertise to write a kernel. If I did, I'd probably turn full B on Linux. 😅

          I wrote a few kernels (how many depends on what you count as "kernel"). This only really made me appreciate the challenges Linux faces more. I mean, I still think it's crap, but I don't think I'd design it all that much better in similar circumstances.
