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.

This is exactly the same "problem" as when open-source projects started enforcing codes of conduct: Any organization is an inherently political entity and is entitled to make political decisions about who can or can't be a member of that organization.

I've seen lots of $word-$number named-accounts claiming that this "puts in jeopardy the future of open source". Fuck off. There's no evidence that these people are banned from submitting patches to the kernel, just that they've been removed from a particular role of authority within an organization.

And to the people saying "But why U trust NSA to submit patches?!"... motherfucker if you're only worrying about that now, you're many years too late. I've been told by an angel in a dream that TempleOS is still free from CIA interference.

Yeah, but the only game it runs is Prayer Warriors, and at this point I've stood against the devil long enough that all the spark is gone from it.

How dare you spread misinformation on the Internet? True believers know TempleOS comes packaged with a number of Fun and Unfun games.

After Egypt is a certified parish classic. Child commits adultery to child? Really punish.
