  • How do i ask for contributors to my open source projects?

    Jump

  • Your project sounds interesting and quite niche. Although it's presented well it's not something I'd immediately be inspired to contribute to, but there's nothing wrong with the project itself. What problem is it solving? Who's going to save time using it? Perhaps include a scenario so that people who aren't immediately familiar 'get' what it is you're achieving?

    Joking aside. I struggle in everyday conversation or in most job settings because the small inconsistencies and inaccuracies that are a normal part of everyday speech accrue in my head without any discharge in a painful way and I either detach to cope (and look like I don't give a shit) or have to splurge back at someone all the minor nonsense logical inconsistencies they've been using over the last few minutes. Or people rely so much on you being in the same mental world as they are that I genuinely don't understand what they mean and come across like a pedantic asshole. From experience this is deeply unwelcome. I would not last long anywhere where normal conversation and ways of thinking is not the thing under the microscope.

    In software development, I can take architects, senior devs, department heads, c-level execs.. whoever.. streaming technical info, regulatory requirements, business processes at me seemingly for any length of time because I can ask anything I want and at the end of it they'll ask me what's wrong with it and I can give them a list and how to fix it. I'm also completely immune to telling senior-whomever that they are wrong, because when I tell them, it's because they are and I can show them why.

    For this I am paid $$$. Anywhere else I would be fired.

    Jump

  • Many heretical texts were not preserved though it's more likely they were simply copied less due to being less popular. What's known of them is preserved in the church fathers discussing them and arguing against them. But aside from the fact there's no positive evidence that heretical texts were deliberately destroyed, the fact that the church fathers quote them and make arguments against them in surviving documents shows there's was no campaign to eradicate discussion of them nor hide the fact that they ever existed.

    Which is what makes it even less likely that there was some great debate over what the text of, say, Matthews gospel was that was then settled and somehow covered up. There's no evidence that this took place at all.

    The original author of (for example) Mathew was not the apostle Matthew, it was written somewhere around 80-100. But the fact that a single version was widespread in the second century and even churches far apart are quoting the same version and evidence for any debate of its content is lacking that shows the text is most likely stable from very shortly after it was written. The same goes for the other gospels, Paul's undisputed letters and most other NT texts.

    "Heresies" were entire other books, not different versions of the canonical texts. There were examples of short forms of gospels being used (Marcion's Luke) but not entire alternate versions.

    The simplest explanation for this is that gospels were produced by a sponsoring church (in Matthews case, Antioch) and then accepted by other churches and rapidly copied widely. There is no evidence later churches substantially rewrote it and some sort of battle ensued.

    We know from how church fathers talked about other disagreements that there would have been no issue preserving such a dispute had it happened.

  • The OT for sure. The NT is different, there's decent evidence the NT was substantially completed in the first century with minor edits in the second. (Wholesale rewrites in the first century totally on the table, though unlikely)

    As a secular scholar I'd point to the lack of substantive differences between the versions used by the widely dispersed church fathers in the early second century, their preoccupation with pointing out error, and their lack of having to tackle massive differences in the text when they tackled lots of other problems and heresies
