Ah crap, I forgot Oracle owned them now. Dang it.

I actually like Java, though it's quite verbose and often annoying because of that, I think it's oddly elegant and full-featured. I enjoy coding Java. Now, fixing other peoples' Java on the other hand...

This couldn't have come at a better time. A friend and I are talking about trying to play around with a project to make games using emulators for older game consoles like this.

Direct excerpt:

Our open source community prioritizes marginalized people’s safety over privileged people’s comfort. We will not act on complaints regarding:

‘Reverse’ -isms, including ‘reverse racism,’ ‘reverse sexism,’ and ‘cisphobia’
Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you”
Refusal to explain or debate social justice concepts
Communicating in a ‘tone’ you don’t find congenial
Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions

This game is great. Bought it the other day.

You raise a very good argument, thank you.

That's very true. It's more about how they act around everyone else, like causing drama in the community and distracting from actually coding. I'm with you for the most part, as long as someone can code great I don't really care, but I personally don't want to deal with drama in the community

I'll agree that I don't see why there needs to be a code of conduct. Why can't open source contributors just agree to be 100% professional in interactions unless you know them personally?

I hope this content is okay for /v/programming. I heard about it from someone and thought it was a really good idea for open source projects. I have nothing to do with this, all credits to domgetter

If you're into text games, you might also like to know about a library made for roguelike games, libtcod. Libtcod is a library meant to make some common roguelike development tasks easier, and there is a C# wrapper for it here, though it isn't actively maintained anymore.
