You might have fun raging on the internet, but I think your goals would be better served if you expressed your thoughts in a clear (maybe even polite) manner that doesn’t embarrass the people whose actions you’re trying to influence.
Umm. I think I’ve been able to reach my goals on the internet better
than most people.
The fact that I’m very clear about my opinions is probably part of it.
If people get offended by accurate portrayals of the current state of
github pull requests, that’s *their* problem.
I hate that whole “victim philosophy”. The truth shouldn’t be sugarcoated.
