Whoever is genuinely tweeting that #CisIsASlur needs to give their head a wobble. Trying to play the victim of a descriptor is pathetic. If cis is a slur, then trans is a slur. Maybe assess your bigotry

Putting up with poorly motivated nitpicking on my code reviews (after initially fighting back and being told I should cooperate). Then when I gave a critical code comments to that same man, got a huge tantrum about how unfair I was being.

I am hugely Facebook critical but don't think it's appropriate to post about how everyone who works there is evil/should leave/etc. Just because you personally wouldn't take a job there everyone has their own reasons. Direct your anger at the leaders and company level.

Strange you should say that. The protocols I use are alive and well, and they give me part of what I need from a community. I do feel good too, and that is part of the story, but to dismiss something you personally don't care for or use seems uncalled for.

For me, the Indieweb is two things: a collection of concepts and ideas (e.g. OwnYourData); and a community with great people. Both offer me a lot, so please don't say "never provide anything to anyone" - There's more alive than dead.

Still blows my mind how people increasingly think the answer to their OSS problems is to harass and abuse the maintainers (aka who can fix their problems). The abuse gets exponentially worse towards non white/cis/men maintainers. This is the “normal”. OSS is broken. twitter.com/mikemcquaid/st…

I hate reading other people's code. Mine is so clean and well structured. Everything is commented neatly and laid out logically. This thing I'm dealing with is a mess. Cryptically named functions, irrelevant comments, multiple styles. Who is this "© Terence Eden 2019" guy anyway?
