An outsider who doesn't program Python eaves drops two Python programmers. She interjected, took a photo without permission. Who bullied who?
Outsiders from twitter and political wiki's who don't program try to hijack the discourse of a community on the forefront of diversity. Open source already welcomed programmers. What are we to make of these outsiders?
Codes of conduct are welcome bait for professional victims and attention seekers with no intention of coding.
Would you be convinced if I compiled the statistics in a blog post?
> saying "don't yell racial epithets" and "don't tell women to make you a sandwich" is not even close to censorship. That's called being a decent person
On paper, diversity and sensitivity is great. I'm a free market capitalist, but the communist manifesto is still the most just draft I've ever read.
However, we don't live in a vacuum.
BSD, perl, c, linux, python, you name it. These projects welcome all and always have. We dont need a code of conduct. We hate how you jinx our cooperation and success.
By the way: Frankly my own black girlfriend loves cooking. I eat together with her family, and we tease each other all the time at the dinner table. Chicken, collared greens, Pepsi.
I've never felt so loved. Instead of tucking my balls between my legs, we laughed like hyenas over wars between our races. Dad was like "gimme my damn food woman!!"
Our dinner was on paper, racist. But our expression brought us closer, and its worth more than 160 characters. Political correctness is a pressure cooker strangling both our families' necks.
Look on github at pycon code of conduct. See adria Richards in the logs?
Look up the blog post where they pulled the pycon code of conduct from geekfeminism wiki.
Lives have been ruined, in part because the integrity of these projects are being lost to outside pressures distracting us from accomplishing technical goals.
Python community is and has been open and diverse. We even let non-programmers into them and real programmers have been fired.
If you do support codes of conduct, know that its not needed. Civility is and has always been apart of hacker culture.
We don't care what you look like. We care if you code. We help each other.
