Comment on: We Will Not Act on Complaints About Racist Harassment Why Githubs Amy Palamountain is a Liability

How can Palamountain be employed now in the technology industry? Even when the policy is inevitably changed or withdrawn, Palamountain will have a tainted reputation. Should she become involved in any dispute or discrimination matter, her past prejudices may be used against her. Internet searches will show up her remarks for years to come undermining her professional credibility.

I love it when these twats show their idiocy publicly and end up becoming Adria Richards 2.0

Comment on: Bi-monthly Community Feedback Thread Nummer Zwei!

I agree on keeping the CSS mostly vanilla. Theres not exactly anything wrong with whats currently there, so why change it?

Comment on: Bi-monthly Community Feedback Thread Nummer Zwei!

In regards to Social Justice, I think that highlighting when a service/tool commonly used by programmers starts going on a censorship spree, and providing alternatives, is valuable. Various other programming news websites (cough) silently remove such content, making it much harder to determine when a service has 'gone rogue'

Comment on: In light of GitHub's recently-announced anti-straight-white-male Code of Conduct, I'd like to reiterate some alternatives to them.

While I can sorta understand the gamergateop repo being removed (it's not code), removing the c+= project under the guise that it 'harasses women' is fucking ridiculous. I don't understand why people are so quick to recommend bitbucket when they're just as censorship happy, but with less parasites looking for 'problematic' elements

Comment on: GitHub's new far-left code of conduct explicitly says "we will not act on reverse racism' or 'reverse sexism'"

Can confirm that I've deleted my account there
