I mean psychological safety, as in https://www.inc.com/justin-bariso/after-years-of-research-go... , or as in "will i face verbal bullying in this space". That is a different type of safety than physical safe

That's fair. I should have said he's arguing for the right to not teach the history of marginalized people, not that he's arguing that others shouldn't (though he does seem to be arguing that others should be allowed to

The question in that survey is different: it asks whether people self-censor because of others. That's pretty different than whether inclusivity is a worthwhile goal, and surveys are notoriously variable based on wording. For example,

I might be making a jump, because I've followed a lot of these discussions over time. To my understanding (and as a disclaimer, I advocate strongly for it), "inclusivity" in general means making an environment safe for people

Does the Chicago Review position itself as an academic organization? I'm under the impression it's a literary publication, which seems pretty different than a research publication in my lay eyes.

It's a pretty standard anti-inclusivity rant (although it starts by attempting to position itself as more than such), and then ends with an anecdote/strawman (which is contrary to every notion of inclusivity advocacy that I'v

That's true, but wlroots (sway's compositor) has tried to fill some of that gap: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/wiki/Projects-which-use-wl... It has its own libraries for things like screensharin

Both openSUSE and [as of very recently] Fedora use btrfs by default, so btrfs support seems pretty stable these days. (But as others have pointed out, there are options for using zfs on linux, too)

FYI it looks like this project isn't necessarily dead; another contributor who merged a PR 2 days ago just posted a short update: https://github.com/zloirock/core-js/issues/767#issuecomment-... > Stop

I think the negative effects spread further because they skew the field more. I think women are more likely to avoid FOSS because there are few women, even without knowing who RMS is, than men are likely to go into FOSS because of RMS or so

Honestly, I think we let a lot of mean-spiritedness pass as "comedy", and I think sexist comedy causes a lot of real-world problems. > I would be dollars to doughnuts that the author of that site and the editors of that "w

That's an interesting way of framing it—I expect that no, he hasn't directly dissuaded more people than he's encouraged. But I expect that the second- and third-degree network effects have. MIT has had a huge influence on ope

It wasn't just this incident. RMS alienated so many women from open source and free software over the last 30 years, and we've lost all of those potential contributions. He's been getting breaks for 30 years. That he has also

It’s really good at highly dynamic/interactive apps, such as browser versions of asana or slack, or other things where user actions are small but frequent. If you aren’t doing full page reloads and have a lot of changes, it’s much simp

I turned slack into a chrome “shortcut” (which seems to be a PWA minus the service worker), which lets it run in chrome instead of a separate electron instance, but also have a separate app window. Ive also found having slack be ~another ch

I would strongly consider leaving if my manager decreed that I mustn’t use vim and must instead use webstorm/atom/whatever (especially if not in vim mode). I’ve spent a lot of time setting up my dev environment so it works well fo

She used to get requests to turn her threads into blog posts; now she does not. Also, she didn’t seem to necessarily want money from them, but somewhat similarly to GPL’d open source projects, doesn’t like scrapers making money off of her w

1) I don't think so. 2) They're different because they usually store and distribute her data somewhere other than twitter. If she deletes a thread, that copy persists. If people interact with that copy, she doesn't get to see

There is definitely a use case here, but there is a difference between making threads readable for sharing outside of twitter, and adding ads or reselling content. (And in the original case, I think it's still reasonable for content cr

She addresses that in the original thread — her twitter threads are specifically for her followers; they're not blog posts.

I ended up creating a homebrew user and giving my personal user sudo access to the homebrew user, which has seemed to work well so far (I may have had to give group read/execute access to all of /usr/local though)

Long (slow) touch on the spacebar to scroll the cursor does work on the SE (at least, it does on mine on iOS 12.1). But you have to press-and-hold, since there's no force press.

I love what you're doing with Oil! Looking forward to trying the interactive version in the future :) And yes, network effects are so important—your C++ example is spot on. One recent example that comes to mind is the adoption from pyt
