megacorp-scale software projects are so unsustainable. if your project's source code is larger than a gigabyte or takes more than a few minutes to compile… god, i'd rather sacrifice a months of my time writing a smaller alternative than have to suffer through building it
@hikari I refuse to believe that anyone, anywhere has ever actually compiled chrome. the binaries are some sort of divine artifact
@0xabad1dea @hikari back at plex we compiled chromium, at least
@rcombs @0xabad1dea @hikari FWIW I agree with the take the binaries are not real and divine artifacts instead
@tamas @rcombs @0xabad1dea give us this day our daily build, and forgive us our vulnerabilities, as we forgive those who exploit ours,
@hikari @tamas @rcombs @0xabad1dea Clearly making Chrome impossible to build is meant to be a barrier for exploit developers
