There's an absurd amount of drama there suddenly, the timeline roughly matching SA's drama, and like SA, trans bigotry is a part.

They are having mass moderator resignations, firing employees for violating not yet published code if conduct, and reclassifying their creative commons licenses.

Best I can tell it started in SEChristian, which I guess exists, and a mod being furious about not being able to call people the wrong pronoun.

From there honestly I can't make heads or tails of it, whether the company is using it to gently caress the community, is it very vocal trolls, no idea.

Everytime there is a function call it puts more data on the stack so it will overflow if there's too many function calls inside another

nothing valued is here

what is here was dangerous and repulsive to us

this place is best shunned and left uninhabited


All i know is that they have newish management, so maybe theyre clearing house for a new administration?

The website that houses the programming Cliff Notes for the entire tech industry is having some sort of alt-right moderation meltdown drama over pronouns.

And yes, it is as loving stupid as it sounds.

Bringing up and fighting about the discrimination inherent in the current power structures is the zeitgeist of the current times. Some people think it's a good thing to do, some people don't and will argue endlessly about it.

Remember my earrings and art are much better than my posting

New stuff starts towards end of page 3 of the thread
