ooh, has anyone made something that transfers ownership of unmaintained codebases via bug bounty? like a sword-in-the-stone for critical fixes?

Farming is god-awful if your livelihood depends on it. I'd rather be a carpenter or a metalworker once I'm fed up with that computer stuff.
Wielders are paid close to programmers in my country
I wondered why I was getting notification from that repo after pretty long time. At least 3 people commented after this post
I could be a farmer...
An MMO gold farmer. 😌
The farm
One of my colleague is leader of the team managing our internal software systems, but also a potato farmer. Somehow.
I have some chickens and some cows. It's easy to combine small scale with wfh. Just need to move soemwhere with land and wifi.
Work from home? Work from chicken coup!
As I get older, farming seems more enjoyable than dealing with technology. Sometimes it's nice to just slow down.
The kind of farming that makes any money isn't slow work.
It is, however, tangible work with tangible results. Unlike spending months changing the polarity of nanoscopic silicon structure for the non-appreciation of an utterly clueless salesperson whose braindead ideas will have left the world in a worse state than you found it despite anyone's best efforts.
I should seriously get into woodworking. Kidding. Sorta.
remember when you would type a few lines of code and then a widget would appear immediately and you'd feel a tiny spark of emotion?
I feel this in my soul. If I were independently wealthy or had a sizeable amount of passive income, I probably would give up the corporate life and just do something like farming.
But in reality, most of the farmers in my area either have to make do with very little or they end up having to work a full time job to supplement the farm income, build a retirement fund, and to have decent health insurance. Kind of takes the joy out of it if I know I'm either going to have to compromise further on healthcare & retirement, or if I'm going to have to continue working another job either way.
Highly skilled people want to become farmers but can't afford it.
Capitalism has come full circle.
Reminds of that post a month ago...
Wait is he still on the Azure Performance team?
Azure needs him to care for Microsoft's Golden Goose at his farm.
Nope. If he hadn't quit, it would say "present" instead of July 2024
Look under "Principal Software Development Engineer." It says "2017-present"
That's the basis for my claim actually. The other position has a date not the word "present". Which I now realize includes 2023 not this year, so I don't know what the original question was getting at.
But...it says "august 2017-present" on the screenshot I'm looking at? Right? Also, isn't July 2024 like, next month?
It says 2023, not 24. Commenter typo’d. and the top number is correct. Bottom one is probably custom filled out, not based on actual work history.
Man is actually living the dream, the crazy son of a bitch did it.
He has become a battery for AI
Was woodworking another common one?
Based
Surprised it wasn't woodworking
nah, brings back memories from the Pragmatic Programmer cover
Don’t be fooled he’s going out there to hsck tractors now.
