Somehow them having an outage and not having the presence of mind to roll back the upgrade was supposed to be an emergency for an unpaid volunteer. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Mikina@programming.dev 3 points 10 months ago If I had a project as succesfull as this, I'd definitely try to sneak in minor inconveniences like renaming parameters just to screw with them. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 point 9 months ago (2 children) SLA? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] bus_factor@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 child) Service Level Agreement. It's when you have a contract requiring a certain level of service, like minimum 99.999% uptime or (in my example) a maximum 30 second response time on support requests.

It's not something you can expect for free from volunteers. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 point 9 months ago Whoa, that does sound expensive! permalink fedilink source parent [–] Kissaki@programming.dev 2 points 10 months ago (1 child) "Vibe" coders produce code though, right?
