  • Being Ridiculed for My Open Source Project (2013)
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 7 Nov 2022
    It’s crazy that this project produced such a strong response from anyone.

    I remember writing this old piece of shit around the same time:

    https://github.com/iaindooley/pickdrop

    The first version was a poor implementation in a number of ways and all I got were constructive contributions on how to improve it!

    Why was Heather ridiculed for her comparatively well written and documented project when I received an admittedly very small but generally positive and supportive response?

What are some alternatives?
