On the Uru forums there is a topic entitled "How Open Source Projects Survive Poisonous People."
It turns out this is the title that a bunch of open source developers have given to a video they've done which is intended to educate prospective workers in open source about good practices.
Objecting to the title, inevitably, gets you called poisonous yourself, if only by implication, which proves the point of the objection. Not believing in poisonous people, not believing that the concept of poisonous people is a good thing, is obviously a sign of being poisonous. Where have we heard that kind of argument before?
Also, open source Uru seems to be as far away as it was at the beginning of the year and is not coming any closer. Must be all us poisonous people hanging around waiting for it. If only we'd all just go away...
Sometimes the human race makes me tired.
