    Yeah and it doesn’t help when the new (as of ~2 years ago) dev ops lead is an “AI first” type. I get all that but like 4 years in, tell us to get fucked “your fields are remaining forever collapsed”. 8 god damn years the initial confluence ticket was open.

    I came across it while setting up a wiki page last night, there were people who had been monitoring it for years. Some real “abandon hope all ye who enter” type shit.

    Bro why is Atlassian actually so shit? Two of their open facing tickets I came across last night. One for them to fix table rendering in the description field of tickets and the other to enable the option for collapsable fields in Confluence to be expanded by default.

    Both were the better portion of a decade old and both with 1-2 year old updates saying “sorry we’ve taken so long to provide an update on this request”. The confluence one was closed without word and move to another ticket, reducing the votes/views and therefore dev priority. Such basic functionality left unaddressed for a decade. Bizzare-o world with some of these tech companies I swear.







  • Also, sealioning is “just asking questions” (JAQ’ing off). Consistently interrogating a position or POV for example, with requests for evidence. Not asking someone to provide some sort of evidence for a single claim they made in reply to another user and refusal to find said evidence for them.

    Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning ) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter

    Emphasis mine. From wiki. I appreciate the attempt to deescalate though and accept it’s probably time to pack it in with that particular user.
