What the hell industry do you work in, then?

Whenever people ask why anyone makes open source software for free, I'm going to use this as a metaphor.

Dang, a whole dollar? I would sell origami tanks for 25¢ each, didn't realize people would pay more than that.

I thought so too. I remember looking for alternatives for when it would be removed completely.

As far as I know, nothing really changed as a result of them stepping down.

What's more, there was a recent discussion about why the derive feature is recommended in serde, and one of the points brought up was that the versions for both crates basically have to be equal. I couldn't help but wonder, would this be a problem if the releases actually followed semver? Theoretically, it shouldn't matter what versions you use, as long as they're above a certain minor version and the major versions match. But since everything is a patch, we have to pin the two crates together somehow.

Probably a spicy take, but I think any API being used by a macro should be made public. A macro shouldn't be the only way to do something; it should just be a way to remove the boilerplate required to do it.
