Which trackball do you use?
Maybe I'm not surprised by this because I work in higher ed, but that ratio of administrative staff vs faculty is not really anything to write home about. I work at a top 10 business school, and our staff/teaching ratio…
That's the thing though, you're calling someone being forced out because they hold a bigoted position 'lynching'. You're equivocating what has historically been an act of racially provoked murder with the removal of a…
Of course not, because that's grossly impractical. There are easy ways of dealing with that - You can first work with the assumption that most people are fundamentally good human beings who don't carry hatred or bigotry…
There is no room for hate speech and bigotry in tech. They cause harm now, and promote harm in the future. You're using censorship as an attempt to wring a personal grievance on the behalf of people who would hide…
Not at all - I don't read Orson Scott Card anymore, because he's a bigot. That is a decision that doesn't touch upon whether or not his books are any good. When it comes to code, there's no piece of code or software…
Opposing gay marriage causes harm because it's active oppression, and because it's a argumentative shield for people who have direct opposition to gay people themselves. There are no strong arguments against gay…
Yikes my dude - a trip through your comment history shows me you're not going to be an enjoyable debate partner. The basis for 'rights' is that anyone should be able to live their life free of fear of harm and…
You're right - you can't ensure that they won't use your work for bad, that's true. You can try to lessen the impact by making sure they're not part of your organization or community. Excluding them does help me,…
Reform is not the intent, although it is the criteria for re-inclusion. The intent is to create a community that respects all of it's members rights. Excluding the co-worker helps me because I don't have to worry about…
Sure - but this has long surpassed 'ideas and opinions'. Oppression of gay people, minorities, and other marginalized groups is not founded in 'opinion' - it's a fact and representation of life. Gay people are currently…
If you're someone who donates to anti-gay causes in their free time and is subsequently surprised that gay people who work for you find that abhorrent enough to out your bigotry to the wider world, then I don't know…
It's materially different because militant vegans don't try to infringe upon my rights. The difference is that if you were advocating for veganism as strongly, I can point to the fact that nobody is being hurt by that…
That's a false equivalency - members of a community hating each other is not the same as members of a community conspiring to oppress other members of a community. The idea that two reasonable human beings will find…
You should not be able to hold whatever views you like and participate in the community. There is no form of bigotry that belongs in software. The problem is not that these are just controversial topics - They're…
What a ridiculous idea. If you are deeply opposed to gay marriage, the only way that becomes an issue is if it bleeds over into your work. This sort of bigotry becomes a problem because people who are deeply opposed to…
What a totally useless comment. Please try harder to contribute to hacker news threads.
It's not "He's actually a girl." She's a woman. Use the right pronouns.
What about react-easy-state stops you from transpiling to ES2015?
That's an unbelievable 90s of audio - It's not even Shen not being able to formulate a response - he's literally choosing to be silent!!
Really? You think that this is exclusively a matter of hygiene and style? I don't know what's worse, that you're so misinformed about the existence of white privilege, or that you feel comfortable trying to bring some…
Correct, it's a react wrapper that implements the Material UI guidelines.
Funny this should come up - This past month I've been exploring building web apps using http://www.material-ui.com/. They have some of the best documentation I've ever seen for a front end framework. Easy code examples…
