It’s so convenient when a single decision can: 1. Save the company money. 2. Virtue signal how woke the company is.

- VLM 7y agoPeople are starting to flee virtue signalling, so thats scary.
- russellbeattie 7y agoI guess "virtue signal" is the cool new catchphrase used by cynics. Is there any way for a person or company to do anything of any good without being accused of this? Probably not. Anonymous commenters on the interwebs loves these types of throwaway accusations. Actually, now that I think of it, mentioning "virtue signal" and "woke" is really just sending a virtue signal about how you're the truly woke one... And I'm sending a virtue signal right now about how I totally get what's happening, and you don't, which shows how woke I am... I don't think this particular hole has a bottom.
- debatem1 7y agoI assume that virtue signalling works much like normal POSIX signalling, except that a process must already be woke to send or receive such a signal. The implications for power management are troubling, to say the least.
- egdod 7y agoIt’s easy to be cynical when a megacompany does something that saves money while arguing that it has nothing to do with saving money.
