      I would suggest not trusting anything Lunduke says, the man went off the deep end and became a harmful conspiracy theorist.

      For example, he believes there is a trans advocacy group going around and destroying open source projects from within. That’s right, only the Lunduke Journal has the truth, and the truth is that trans kids are killing open source.

        He used to be on a podcast I listen to (Bad Voltage) and there was an episode (pre-pandemic) where he came out as anti-vaccinations. I didn’t listen to the show again until he left. I have zero time for people who think they know better than their children’s doctors.

        Unless the lawsuit is a fabrication, you are literally dismissing a story just based on who is telling it.

          No, I’m trying to reduce the influence of a problematic individual. The lawsuit has, and will have, more coverage.

      Gutting defeated/ousted manager’s projects is an obligatory and unavoidable ritual in corporate environment. Competent or convenient employees are pulled into other teams, pesky/unconvenient ICs are fired since everything can be pinned on the loser. Projects are often dismantled - even profitable ones to remove any possible foothold for a comeback. Shit, now I want to write a corpo book but styled like high school biology textbook.

        The incoming CEO kills the preceding CEO’s cubs so the company will get back into estrus and they can have their own cubs.
