Everything is open source for this guy after using this simple trick. Big techs HATE him!
Let the patch be part of the code for one or two minor releases. Then revert the changes of the patch.
Why would they do that? Talk about generating mistrust.
That screams: Open you source code and accepted correction !
Always love this one, I’d do the same but there’s to many fucking things to fix.
Sounds like you should find a new product to use.
I would but due to capitalism there’s not much of a choice in products.
I hate when companies just eat an entire industry.
What’s the product and what’s the field?
Soda and soda accessories.
I’m a Bev tech, there’s two companies that make bar guns, tapright and multiplex aka wunderbar. There’s more options for fountain dispensing but most of my work is bars and restaurants.
Also AMA about soda dispensing at bars.
It seems like I’m constantly finding bugs in businesses’ apps. Do they not have people test them?
They do, and they have a backlog of hundreds of issues to fix and they must prioritise then. If fixing a bug doesn’t make money, it’s not priority.
I am steadfast that I will occasionally take some time and kill off some low hanging fruit. For me, its kind of like a break and lets me clear my head on the bigger issues.
Even then, there are bugs that need multiple people (design, engineering, content, QA, etc) and are not something that can be fixed on a whim.
