Except the fact that it's a breeding chamber for those "unity and identity" types of people/ideologies/projects?
Embracing diversity is messy, and it's also a blessing. There should be lots of ways of doing the same thing, etc.
- undeveloper 22d agoi dont believe tech projects have a right to talk about "heritage is duty" and certainly not when the creator has made a point about being a white supremacists. i wonder when he says unity, if he means the non-white he complains so much about explicitly in his article "as i remember britain"
- gaigalas 22d agoMy point is that opinionated software is a magnet for supremacist types and ideologies. It's a nest for their "vision" or whatever. We're already way past the point of pointing out his character flaws. I want to also point out that as long as we keep this exception the post author made of "ah, there's nothing wrong with being opinionated", these types will use that as a means to push their agenda. I believe we should aim for the messy, "lots of different ways of doing the same thing" as a clear substrate that embraces all kinds of diversity of ideas and rejects the scumbag ideologies inherently.
