I have a feeling we'll learn plenty of applicable lessons from one with the other.

Techbros are a very real and rather well defined term and collection of people.

Neoliberals not so much.

update:

vs

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Techbro

notice how the definitions are much more consistent for a techbro.

created by tech bros

Neo liberalism is a Boogeyman that means literally nothing thanks to everyone calling everyone else it. The real issue (with Airbnb) is that tech bros decided to create a business solution to something that in all honesty wasn't a problem and now we're here. The same can be said for Uber, and all the other "gig economy" companies.

Vote me for president. I have a plan.

it used to run pretty well on one, but the lead dev made significant changes making it a bitch to run without doing it "his way". What I ended having to do was change my nginx configuration so that I was using the one in his docker-compose directly as opposed to running my own that would point to his for mail related needs.

I forgot what exactly broke but when I reported that breakage I basically got told "tough shit, it works on my set up", I don't remember being demanding or impolite just reporting the issue and asking if he was aware of/had plans to fix it. Not too long after the product was acquired and I chalked it up to enshittification and shitty dev being a shitty dev.

TLDR; good luck and ymmv

They are saying that your answer is indicative of the attitudes prevalent of your home instance. It's a very common fediverse method of attempting to dismiss arguments that someone doesn't agree with but can't otherwise disprove.

That really helps explain the context for one of my favorite PHP bashes ever.

It's a great read but it should be noted that the post was written in 2012 and considered under such a context.

PHP is probably a fine language, my issue is I suffered dealing with so many shitty applications written in php when I was still coming up through the ranks of IT.

God the number of broken WordPress installs and shitty WordPress plugins.
