  • To me sounds like either a neglected project

    If it’s a depdency nested deep in the dependency graph, that doesn’t necessarily mean I abandoned my project. I might be using this dependency of a dependency in my project and don’t notice anything, if there is a precompiled version for the (Python/Linux/…) distribution I’m running on my machine, so I might not notice that. It might even be, that I keep my dependencies up to date, but someone up the chain isn’t. And maybe there isn’t really a viable alternative to that one dependency that pulls that package in.












  • For me it was the other way round sadly. We lived in a house (rented) in a city district that was basically dubbed “the little cozy village right in the city”. We had the prospect of buy this house one day for quite cheap, but then the gentrification happened very fast before we could do that. There were many old houses in that area - often times so old, that the only real way to deal with them was to tear them down and rebuild. Even those were sold at sky high prices. Don’t even think to stay below 800k to 1M. And that before all the additional construction needed. Since this price hike only took about ~1 year to reach this point, we hadn’t really time to realize what was going on. We even got a very good offer to buy the house, but with all repairs and such needed, we’d have still been on the hook for an estimated ~900k total.

    I mean, while probably not everything of that was planned, those missions, interviews and streams also serve as PR. So it doesn’t surprise me when there are things like this happening AND “allowed” to occur.

    Also it’s quite a different team building and “work athmosphere” needed here, if you do not only see your colleagues a few hours per day, but spend quite a while together.
