Ubuntu has been underwhelming as of late. It’s fine, just underwhelming. Sometimes software becomes underwhelming as it matures but in this case, the hiring process seems designed to ship underwhelming software.
Then there is the particular issue. That kind of thinking/communication style doesn’t make me feel comfortable with Ubuntu (or any project he would have a leadership role in).
And finally, I’m really tired of how our industry seems to glorify jerks.
So we have:
1.) Ubuntu is rather underwhelming.
2.) The hiring process is so fucked that underwhelming software is the most likely result.
3.) There is a lot of competition and I can find projects with vaguely professional/secure leaders.
