Starting to think I should just reject all PRs from devs that don't use Nostr... Like why are you even contributing if you don't even have an npub?

...ya don't have to reject them all... but... Yeah!! #NostrOnly !!
"why are you even contributing if you don't even have an npub?" Probably as a career thing, I'm assuming that PR's etc are tracked as part of most SW firm hiring practices?

может они лишь не хотят связывать личности гитхаб и ностр даже если это никнеймы, а не имена, и особенно, если текущая тенденция всех идентифицировать и посчитать как цыплят 😎
My previous company almost hired an "intern" sent by our competitors to learn everything so that they could copy our code. We realized something was off during the interview.. but who knows ones we didn't realize we're not there to help us ..
Yeah, smaller places often judge your skills based on GitHub (specifically) metrics like PRs especially. Which, to be fair, when working with a team is as important as your coding skills as well.
I think there is many younger developers who want to get some credibility, and I understand them. But with the capabilities now with AI, it's much more valuable for someone to create a well written issue, better that the core maintainers run AI on their own codebases than third parties.
i do like it. i don't like you baiting me to reveal an npub. let me remain an anon.
will you accept a full namecoin core node 😂? it's alot less than 10 gb atm. I have asked for feedback from namecoin devs about the current electrumx implementation but i only expect it in may at the earliest.
Why not? Somebody has to do it and you clearly care about it. Nobody else cares about building on Android. The namecoin people will never do it. It's not their role to do it. Somebody else needs to.

Internships are institutionalized exploitation. I regret the intern not getting hired and reducing your company to smithereens.
electrum-nmc with electrumx approach was good enough for torproject which was good enough for me. it worked well for google pixel just most android devices are cucked so the pinned cert thing came into play. you are obviously not happy with this so i will wait for feedback from nmc devs as there may be an option i haven't considered that will make everyone happy.
Maybe I misunderstood. It sounded like they were just firing out PRs with no understanding of the actual thing being contributed to. I don't see why that would be an important part of working on any team for anything. Again, unless I'm misunderstanding. If it's an actually useful PR addressing some issue, and it works and doesn't harm anything, I guess I can see it.

maybe these are just anons that don't wanna be exposed and have their npubs attached to their gh account because that's also tracked as it gets?

If that how it works on your planet, all the power to you. I hope I'll be able to join this advanced civilization of yours one day.
