Done! |
Add your 👍 now because bors will see and judge you in this inevitable future! Praised be our glorious and kind overlord! |
I would just like to state for the record that I have always supported bors, and they should have no reason to include me in their inevitable purge of humanity |
I am 100% in favor of this. My one and only concern is that by giving Bors the Rust language, it will become completely unstoppable if it decides to take over the human race. There won't be any memory safety or concurrency bugs that we can rely on to make it crash. That means no chance to take back control if something goes terribly wrong. I guess our only hope in that case will be that Bors might get a memory leak since "leaking memory is safe". 😂 |
How will we get there? While many would say that the solution would be to think | ||
about how other groups run their projects and then synthesizing the best ideas | ||
this RFC proposes a radical solution to the problem. One that's already been | ||
with us since the early days of Rust and will continue on beyond our lifetimes. |

At most bors turns into a paper clipper maximizer in that they try to | ||
rewrite the fundamental laws of the universe in Rust in order to optimize |

Niko and @sgrif have been trying to do this for a while now: rust-lang/rust#48536
growth of Rust as a language so that it might exist not only for our | ||
descendants, but theirs in perpetuity. | ||
4. bors works tirelessly for the project 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They | ||
clearly care for the project in ways none of us can possibly hope to match. |

This feels like a natural evolution from #2381!
I, for one, welcome our new overbors. |
Without a doubt dictatorships, if done right, are the most efficient way to govern. I trust that bors, our prime leader, will be doing right by us. I believe this means we can finally dissolve all other working groups as well? I support this decision. |

@spacekookie could you provide a citation? |
I, for one, want to publicly state that I would never suggest kicking bors off the contributors list, and that any IRC users requesting such an abhorrent thing are clearly impostors misusing my nickname! |
@dbrgn You wouldn't happen to be scared of Roko's Borsilisk, would you? 😉 |
(April 1 UTC is over, closing all April Fools RFCs. Thanks for the fun!) |
Bring forth a new future for the Rust Community. One we can truly unite under.
