  • That’s essentially how most distributions of Linux and Unix work. You package an app with a list of depencies like “libcaca >= 1.2.3” and that’s that. If that dependency isn’t available in the distro you need to have that packaged (and thus have a maintIner for said package) first. The distro’s package maintainers are responsible for keeping an eye on the upstream sources and provide reviews. Often there’s also a security team that watches for packages requiring expedited attention, and security backports.

    Then this sort of crap like NPM came along and it became popular for devs to package their own dependencies.



















  • In China workers rights are pretty non-existent and there’s no OSHA equivalent, at least not to the degree we have in the US

    How much maternity leave d’you get in the US? Cause in China it’s a minimum of 90 days up to 180. And an extra 15~30 days of pat leave. Mandatory paid holiday? US: 0 China: 11. Sick leave? US: 0 China: months (at reduced rate). Vacation? US: 0, China: 1 to 3 weeks.

    An employer that fails to allow an employee to take annual leave must pay that employee 300% of the employee’s daily wages for each unused vacation day

    The work sfatey certainly remains an issue, like any developing country, but things are rapidly improving.

    Things aren’t all roses in China, but y’all have to get off of your high horse when you know fuck all other than bland ass propaganda.
