Title: FLOSS Development Sucks
|
||||
|
||||
This Article Is A Work In Progress
|
||||
====================
|
||||
|
||||
I'm not even sure where I'm going with this.
|
||||
Maybe I just needed to vent.
|
||||
I think there might be advice in here somewhere,
|
||||
but right now I'm tired of feeling pissed off,
|
||||
so I'm just going to save this and move on with my day.
|
||||
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
This morning I thought I'd mention to a couple old colleagues
|
||||
that I was still working on our codebase,
|
||||
and I was considering splitting it off into something new
|
||||
because it was looking like it might diverge pretty significantly.
|
||||
|
||||
I've been on this IRC channel for about a month.
|
||||
There have been a sum total of 5 lines pasted,
|
||||
all of them saying "hello" and "help" before anybody answered.
|
||||
5+ years ago,
|
||||
it was just me, the author of the package,
|
||||
and another guy (the author of ratpoison),
|
||||
mostly just shooting the breeze about bicycles.
|
||||
The author had mentioned several times that the package was basically out of his hands,
|
||||
once it got merged into emacs.
|
||||
|
||||
I've submitted a couple patches in the past,
|
||||
and they've been accepted upstream.
|
||||
|
||||
So I tossed this out there expecting, if anything, a multi-day turnaround,
|
||||
hopefully from the author:
|
||||
|
||||
> 08:32 neale> hello
|
||||
> 08:32 neale> I think I'm going to have to fork rcirc :(
|
||||
> 08:33 neale> I'm making too many changes and I don't have time to get them merged into emacs.
|
||||
|
||||
And then went back to work.
|
||||
|
||||
> 08:44 ams> what changes are you doing?
|
||||
|
||||
Whoa, somebody responded!
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:09 neale> I added a notion of "network" so you could have and distinguish multiple connections to the same server
|
||||
> 09:09 neale> umm...
|
||||
|
||||
At this point I struggle to do a diff against the upstream source,
|
||||
to see what else I've done.
|
||||
I definitely wasn't expecting this right away,
|
||||
I figured I'd maybe put things up on github or something.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:11 ams> you can already do that afaik
|
||||
> 09:11 [neale raises an eyebrow]
|
||||
|
||||
Who is this person?
|
||||
I read over the code pretty thoroughly before I added this in,
|
||||
I think I would have noticed if anything resembling my changes had existed already.
|
||||
|
||||
Back do the diff, it looks like all my prior changes have actually been merged upstream,
|
||||
after five years or so!
|
||||
That's a pleasant surprise!
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:12 ams> but if you cannot .. that doesn't seem like a hard thing to merge
|
||||
> 09:12 neale> I'm going to have to figure out a way to hack in support for channel passwords
|
||||
> 09:12 neale> that's going to probably need to break syntax
|
||||
> 09:12 ams> break syntax? of what?
|
||||
> 09:13 ams> you are being incoherent.
|
||||
> 09:13 neale> next on the list is I need a way to have channels default to lowpri/ignore when created, so, probably going to tack that on to rcirc-server-alist
|
||||
|
||||
This happens sometimes on IRC.
|
||||
While I was writing that long line, they posted two more.
|
||||
I see I should now answer their other questions.
|
||||
But now they're insulting me?
|
||||
Who *is* this person?
|
||||
Are they just wasting my time because they like arguing?
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:13 neale> of /join
|
||||
> 09:13 neale> right now /join takes a space-separated list of channels, I'll probably need to bring that in line with how other clients handle multiple channels with a single join (or more likely change it to space-separated)
|
||||
> 09:14 neale> sorry, change it to comma-separated
|
||||
|
||||
I'm getting flustered here.
|
||||
I wasn't expecting to need to defend my changes.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:14 ams> why?
|
||||
> 09:14 ams> setting default priority should be trivial, and no need to change rcirc-server-alist
|
||||
|
||||
This didn't even register with me until I started writing this paper.
|
||||
I told them I needed channels to start with a certain priority,
|
||||
so I was going to add that to the list of channels to connect to at startup.
|
||||
They referred me to the mechanism to set a global default.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:14 neale> ams: see, this is what I was saying about not having time to merge upstream :)
|
||||
> 09:15 neale> but it's good to know that there's somebody alive in here :)
|
||||
|
||||
Yeah, I think this person isn't going to help.
|
||||
It's pretty typical that you have to do a sales pitch,
|
||||
over and over,
|
||||
to get your changes accepted.
|
||||
And I don't have time for that.
|
||||
I've already wasted enough time just trying to convince this one person
|
||||
that there was even a need for the work I've done so far.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:15 ams> you just said you haven't even written it ..
|
||||
> 09:15 ams> there is nothing to merge.
|
||||
> 09:15 neale> LOL okay
|
||||
|
||||
Still feeling this person is just trying to waste my time and get me into an argument.
|
||||
I probably should have just stopped here, but...
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:15 ams> and half of the things you mention can already be done
|
||||
> 09:15 neale> maybe you could write up how to do those things then, because it certainly wasn't obvious from the code :)
|
||||
|
||||
If this person had been paying attention,
|
||||
a full 20% of last month's channel traffic had been requesting this exact feature.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:17 ams> i don't see the use for multiple connections to the same host on the same port, most networks prohibit that.
|
||||
> 09:17 neale> hahaha, excellent
|
||||
> 09:17 ams> you can already connect to multiple hosts though with different port numbers
|
||||
> 09:17 neale> Stop Wanting That!
|
||||
|
||||
Now I'm mad!
|
||||
They're not even interested in why I would want the feature I coded up.
|
||||
They just want to tell me I'm wrong.
|
||||
This is the point at which I completely gave up,
|
||||
and was just saying words out of anger.
|
||||
|
||||
I don't do well when I'm like this,
|
||||
but I know some people who are *excellent* in this situation,
|
||||
like my friend Nick.
|
||||
Sometimes I wish I were better,
|
||||
because people like this,
|
||||
I feel,
|
||||
need to be put in their place,
|
||||
and stop being hostile to everybody.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:17 ams> simply specify a different port
|
||||
> 09:17 ams> ok, you are trolling. i'll go back to doing something else.
|
||||
> 09:18 neale> I'm trolling, eh?
|
||||
> 09:19 neale> Man, look, I'm coming in with a need, you're telling me that a) it already does what I want, b) I don't actually have changes, and c) there's no need for me want what I said
|
||||
|
||||
I'm still trying to (angrily) convince them
|
||||
that this is a horrible way to treat people they don't even know.
|
||||
|
||||
> 09:19 ams> no, i didn't say that at all. now you are just spouting lies.
|
||||
> 09:19 ams> 17:19 /ignore neale
|
||||
> 09:19 neale> Who's trolling? Anyway what happened to rcy and sabetts? They were friendly :(
|
||||
> 09:20 neale> Wow, infuriating.
|
||||
|
||||
But it's a lost cause.
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
This is pretty frequently how things go.
|
||||
I wish I'd saved the 20-minute argument I had to endure
|
||||
to convince some plan9 people
|
||||
that some users might want a their three-button mouse to have a scroll wheel.
|
||||
They eventually accepted that,
|
||||
yes,
|
||||
some users might actually want that,
|
||||
and what was the mouse I'd found that does this?
|
||||
|
||||
This is not okay.
|
||||
The community is selecting for people who are good at arguing.
|
||||
We should not require every code contributor
|
||||
to champion their code's worth
|
||||
by besting the local troll in combat.
|
||||
Even though I envy Nick's level-headedness during empassioned debate,
|
||||
that skill has no correlation to the ability to make useful code contributions.
|
||||
|
||||
In the troll's defense,
|
||||
this is just human nature.
|
||||
Say there's this group of men discussing mortise and tenon joints,
|
||||
and you have a better technique.
|
||||
The way things work in FLOSS, currently,
|
||||
is that you must step into this group an tell them they're doing it wrong.
|
||||
It takes an extraordinary individual to *not* tell you to fuck off.
|
||||
And you know that,
|
||||
which is why your social instincts are screaming at you to be very uncomfortable.
|
||||
So when the "fuck off" happens,
|
||||
you've steeled yourself for it,
|
||||
and then you get a slap fight.
|
||||
|
||||
There has got to be a better way.
