- the owner of nvim-treesitter gets a really shitty comment from a user saying that the update to a required version broke their workflow
- the owner replies saying "hey just pin what you need instead of mainlining it if you need this for an older version"

Ada Worcester 🏳️⚧️The most surreal thing about AI coding shit taking on is the revelation that so many people who do this thing that I love, seem to have no care for the craft at all. Even people who I would have pointed at, years ago, as those who clearly care. And I know it has always been Just A Job for many people, but holy shit, do you even care a little bit?
