Maintenance is more important than innovation.

This xz debacle is a symptom of a system that prioritizes lots of things above maintenance.

Take this as a reminder to rest, to mend things & pay attention to what needs mending in yourself. Do the radical thing of working slowly and making all things more whole.

@cathos i disagree, this is not a symptom, it is a reminder, that no one is safe from social engineering. and that it is easy and completely normal, look at all the abusive entitled assholes demanding things from free sw devs all the time. it is become normal to put pressure on all kind of people in charge, and to make them give up. the devs are the victims, and (some of) the users are the perps.
