A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You might’ve noticed Framework, the laptop manufacturer, embroiled in a controversy as of now. The Discord server is on lockdown because the volunteer moderation team has gone on hiatus, and the Framework forum post about the controversy has been gaining unsightly amounts of steam from people disappointed at actions taken by Framework.

DHH is a massive piece of shit. I keep seeing his stupid name popping back up recently and I wish he would go the fuck away. No community needs his toxic views.

good thing is most of the rails community think the same thing and actively distance themselves from him

Yeah, I’ve been keeping track of that one and they are trying to get him removed from any sort of leadership role over the community.

He’s been a dirt bag for as far back as I can remember.

it's because of his Arch .dotfiles believe it or not. People are hailing it as the "second coming" of linux.

It's not even good. It's just scripts for some starter Arch rice, not a serious distro.
