“When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.”
I suspect that he is incapable of admitting to himself that he is in a hole, much less that he dug it himself.
on the contrary, 99% of the people who find themselves in a hole stop digging right before they fix the situation
I need a dummy’s guide to this entire thing, yesterday I didn’t know about Mullenweg’s existence and today I learn wordpress is suing wordpress for not being legit wordpress or something
