Is OpenStack fighting a lost battle?
https://memooo.ooo/posts/is-openstack-losing/
大概 5 年前，我在 GCP 和一个候选人吃午饭，对方当时在 IBM 做 OpenStack。对方抱怨一个提交往往要花 2, 3 天，不停地重试才能把所有的集成测试跑过。因为 OpenStack 分成了许多的组件，整个生态也有好几家重量级商业公司参与，大家都带着各自的商业利益在项目里博弈，导致牵扯到跨不同组件的集成测试一直不稳定。一听他讲到这里，我就意识到，OpenStack 是没有前途的。

来自 37signals 的 CEO。作者开头引用了 Jobs 的一句话
The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.
然后说
I don’t buy it.
作者拿的反例是 靠 hate 也可以做，但就像我们常说「爱之深，恨之切」，所以我感觉作者的观点和 Jobs 的话并不矛盾 (可能是故意要树立一个对立)，讲的都是对事情是否在意，有激情。
