That means you’re doing it right.
I thought that in such case I acomplished success as open source developer: someone actually like my software enough to use it
Yeah honestly it has been really cool for me seeing something I made in the wild- and I haven’t even made that big of projects
Can someone please mirror this meme vertically so that bottom text reads first
I got you
Perfection
Absolute madlad
Just pretend you never saw the question and moove on lol
Probably me, if only I could finish anything…
Or even worse… Asking for Typescript definitions
I was pretty excited to see what some people made with a library I maintain.

Someone actually using it for some reason and start asking for documentation and examples Me writing open source projects for fun
This action was performed by a bot.
Couldn’t chat gpt do it for you?
This kind of comment that would need an /s elsewhere lol
I’ve thrown powershell scripts at it, telling it to add comments to the code, and it did a great job.
While I know this is meant to be funny, anyone finding them in this position should give this a read https://www.softwaremaxims.com/blog/not-a-supplier
Excellent reading, thanks for sharing
And that’s why it’s so important that that is not undermined: https://techcrunch.com/2023/04/18/in-letter-to-european-commission-open-source-bodies-say-cyber-resilience-act-could-have-chilling-effect-on-software-development/
Thanks for mentioning this I’d never heard of this proposal before!

What’s documentation?
“I don’t need to comment this code at all, it’s pretty self-explanatory, I’ll remember this 100% no problem.”
Scene cut:
Me six months later, staring blankly at the code like the monkeys & The Monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey, desperately trying to unravel the workings of my ADHD brain and just exactly why the seemingly innocent and innocuous-looking function named “dontFuckingTouchThis” is the lynchpin preventing the whole goddamned thing from falling over and going tits-up.
The first time I did a web site that was any use to other people, was exactly like this.
Literally anytime I send my dad (retired IT) a script I’ve been working on and he sends it back with the equivalent to red pen corrections on a paper / telling me all the various avenues of exception handling I need to add
Sorry guys, I’m very much a monkey on a bike.
Damn, actually can’t wait to get there (just have to actually finish something first).
