"The Hard Parts of Open Source" by Evan Czaplicki
Strange Loop Conference

Evan Czaplicki, creator of Elm, discusses the hard parts of running an open source project: online community conflict, why its patterns arise, and a cultural history of open source. He offers ideas for more civil, productive communication.
HN recommends it as an insightful look at the people side of open source maintenance, especially in Elm and maintainer-burnout threads.
