The thing about accepting pull requests from any contributions that take more time to approve than if people already could do faster is the fact that the way to onboard people to contribute is to help them out and some of them become good contributors .

I thought the point of open source is that: if the king gone mad, someone can make a copy and make it great again

It almost feels like his argument is: "OSS is bad because how DARE the maintainer judge my pull request?! They should really judge the pull request of others, they are bad! I'm good, don't judge my pull request! Also, if I'm judging the code of others, I can be mean because I'm a genius."

professional yapper. i especially liked the part where he explained how proprietary software alleviates these issues, as if they are not omnipresent in all of software development. i think it was around 24:53

Without open source everyone would need to reinvent the wheel, we'd be still in the stone age without it

One key point to remember is that if someone can provide harsh or undiplomatic criticism due to their high standards for work, they should also be open to receiving criticism about their social behavior (where others might hold higher standards than they do) Consider the social aspect part of the work.

Thank you for saying that Open source coders are heroes of modern days. I am not an open source developer, but I also think that they are heroes.

Saying a rejected PR is wasted time is like saying a failed scientific experiment is wasted time. That's wrong and short sighted.
