Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

So the orange site is having a normal one over Python BFDL trying to skirt CoC by talking about mod actions against some old dude who caught a suspension for being precisely the sort of edgelord poaster I'd expect out of a Python maintainer, which the orange site was also not happy about. I even read a bunch of his posts in the thread, like where he calls people standing up to NixOS leadership "true villains".

These are not "Python community guidelines". These are the guidelines of a tyrannical clique who have grabbed power and control the access to the infrastructure.

Lmao, fucking armchair revolutionaries at it again with interpreting a list of rules which essentially boils down to "don't be an asshole" as the literal end of civilization because it's attacking their ~~assumed right to use slurs and insults~~ free speech.

Makes you think that it's always the same kind of people who seem to have a problem with not being a racist twat in a public space. Feels like I've seen similar discussions a dozen times in the Rust community too whenever the term inclusivity comes up.
