  • DHH (guy who founded Ruby on Rails) ripped typescript out of a supporting library and swapped it for JavaScript. He did it in his typical fashion of not allowing discussion and being a dick (PR only open for a couple hours and then merged disregarding all the negative feedback about the change) . So people are mad at him again.

    He does stupid shit like this all the time because he’s a fucking knob.











  • Don’t the majority of podcast clients utilize the podcast RSS feed directly? Why would adding support for a specific app’s API make it easier to integrate with existing clients? Wouldn’t republishing a new RSS feed that points to self hosted media make it work immediately with the majority of clients instead of just one or ones that support the gpodder API? I didn’t even see any API documentation in my admittedly shallow search of their site
