Title text: There are probably children out there holding down spacebar to stay warm in the winter! YOUR UPDATE MURDERS CHILDREN.
Transcript
[Changelog for version 10.17 of a piece of software.]
One change listed: “The CPU no longer overheats when you hold down the spacebar”
Comments: LongtimeUser4 writes: This update broke my workflow! My control key is hard to reach, so I hold spacebar instead, and I configured Emacs to interpret a rapid temperature rise as “control”.
Admin writes: That’s horrifying.
LongtimeUser4 writes: Look, my setup works for me. Just add an option to reenable spacebar heating.
Every change breaks someone’s workflow.
Emacs itself is actually impressively good at not breaking workflows, given how configurable the package is.
Other software: Don’t like this change? Go fork yourself.
Open Source software: Don’t like this change? Go fork it yourself.
Emacs: What do you mean you don’t like this change? You wrote the Elisp for the package yourself.
