RE: @eschaton@mastodon.social

We went from "plagiarism is bad," to "what I'm doing isn't plagiarism,"* to "you know, maybe plagiarism is okay now, ackshually" in a matter of months.

I cannot tell you how happy I am to be leaving tech. The next 2-5 years will be a parade of horrors. The closest analogy I can come up with is the tech sector as spaceship, and they just brought a Xenomorph on board: "oh, this will be just fine, just put those vaguely menacing eggs over in the corner."

*It, in fact, is plagiarism.
