Originates from Lunduke. Yikes.
I'll take a pro shaman over that ass clown.
I'm not familiar with this Lunduke person, can you direct me to some context?
I am not aware of an article summarizing his greatest hits. Principally, he's a person who talks a lot and likes some mild conspiratorial thinking. From what I gather, he's also a liability for anyone who ever employed him in their marketing department, because he's only interested in furthering his own brand. He does make a lot of videos these days, so I guess you can decide for yourself if you like him and his style. :)
/c/linux stop sharing the garbage spewed by this ass clown challenge (apparently impossible)
I'm not a fan of woo-woo at all but this Lunduke guy seems like a real PoS
What about the rest of her talents?
Holly brings three decades of invaluable experience in nonprofit management, having served as a consultant, director of development, executive director, and board member for numerous organizations. Notably, she founded the nonprofit organization Artists United, dedicated to empowering individual artists and fostering collaboration across artistic disciplines for the collective good. Additionally, Holly served as the Executive Director of the BioBricks Foundation, an international, open-source biotechnology nonprofit.
From the link posted elsewhere in this thread on the Gnome website.
https://foundation.gnome.org/2023/10/17/foundation-welcomes-new-executive-director/The rest of her merits seem reasonable for the position. The post also says she has a masters degree in education and a bachelors degree in English from Harvard. I have to assume that the GNOME Foundation put a lot of thought into this based on interviews and investigation that we're not publicly privy to, and it's not as simple as "GNOME is stupid and they hired a crackpot shaman off the street haha!" People can do great things at their job without adhering to your specific worldview in their personal life.
She was clearly the best choice for the job
That's funny, but where is the source and how will this help the project? Without context this seems out of place
shouldn't she be in QA with those spiritual cleansing abilities?
lights candles.
spritzes some oils.
some chanting as hands hover over the development server.
a moment of silence.
screams "BUGS BE GONE!!
I still don’t understand why a software project requires anyone who is not writing software or doing UI/UX.
So you want software developers to spend less time building the software so they can run a nonprofit too? Do you think all the conferences, sites, fundraising, marketing, extensive help docs, bug processing, and community engagement is all something that can just be done on the side?
Just ask any software dev working st any of these foundations. They don't want to do any of the business-side work. Or, if they do, they certainly don't want to do it alone. If they were alone in it, they wouldn't have time to write code.
Someone has to direct them, and have a final say in which features get implemented and which do not. Otherwise the project will go nowhere.
Developers don't necessarily make the best fundraisers, auditors, accountants, human resource managers, legal advisors, or any of a hundred other disciplines involved in running a large organisation.
This particular person seems to have extensive experience managing large non-profits and membership organisations; which is exactly what the GNOME Foundation is. There's no expectation that everyone on the board of directors will know how to cut code...
