11 months agoMy in laws are the same way, they live in what was a rural suburb of a major metropolitan area. They are convinced that apartments will lower their property value despite that being statistically the opposite of what happens. They are msnbc liberals and don’t see how “property values” is just a nice way of saying you don’t want minorities around. Yet, they get mad when there is no one to work at the services they need.
Edit: didn’t realize this was on beehaw, guess I’ll just talk to myself over here because beehaw fucking sucks
DHH (guy who founded Ruby on Rails) ripped typescript out of a supporting library and swapped it for JavaScript. He did it in his typical fashion of not allowing discussion and being a dick (PR only open for a couple hours and then merged disregarding all the negative feedback about the change) . So people are mad at him again.
He does stupid shit like this all the time because he’s a fucking knob.
