I'm so super frustrated and upset about this MIT thing. The hallowed halls that I always associated with all things hacker-ish and who invented many of the key things modern society has come to rely on has truly failed those it spawned.
The loss of context by the MIT staff is just so heart breaking. If I had my true revenge fantasy I'd tear the institution asunder, figuratively. Rebuild it in the true spirit of learning.
Ultimately with the whole fiasco... before the police were involved, No one was Substantially Harmed!
I feel like Boston, MIT and the area has become a dangerous place to not follow the rules. Perhaps its time for another Go West Exodus. Because a part of my brain tells me this whole mess would never have gone down in the bay area.
Come join your brethren my east coast brothers and sisters!
