I don't believe this is true. If it were, I don't think it would be so difficult to get companies to adopt policies against hate speech directed towards any group. This kind of thing hurts everyone, it's not restricted to any

I strongly disagree. Businesses do not exist in a vacuum. The second you hire one employee, it becomes about inclusivity. That's why every business has to follow the same employment laws. I'm sorry but I'm not interested in c

Telling employees there are other places they can go that are less hostile is still not a justification for having a hostile workplace. If everyone thought that way, nobody would ever tackle these problems. It's a mistake to try and eq

If people are telling you that they're leaving their job and salary because of those problems, then it probably is a big deal. Also, telling people who have voiced concerns to "just shut up" is not the way to foster healthy c

I'm very confused as to what you mean. Are you saying it's not possible for people who get paid above a certain threshold to be bullied and harassed at work? I strongly disagree with that.

I know that but I'm just baffled that the text of the standard could be released at a point in time when nobody has succeeded at implementing it fully. That seems like it would almost guarantee that no one implements the standard as it

How is it possible that modules were released, if nobody has a working implementation? I was under the impression that proposals needed at least a proof-of-concept implementation from a sponsor. My exposure to this is searching the CMake tr

The pull request probably wouldn't be accepted because it's a major change and no other Mutter contributors are interested in reviewing such a patch or dealing with the (far-reaching) effects of it. GNOME is just the nonprofit ope

For apps that don't care about decorations, the toolkit is supposed to handle it. Inside Electron would be the safest place to implement a fallback for applications that don't care about decorations. That way you can be sure it wi

Writing lots of boilerplate is an opportunity to build new libraries, frameworks, code generators, and other tooling; use that as something extra you can share with your colleagues and sell to clients, or use it to build an open source port

What's next, will they prove how easy it is to break into kernel developers' houses and rob them? Or prove how easy it is to physically assault kernel developers by punching them in the face at conferences? Or prove how easy it is

I don't think GNOME adding SSD would really help, considering a lot of Electron apps tend to use CSD to integrate with the target platform [0] [1] [2] [3]. Likely those apps should be fixed to correctly use CSD when applicable on all p

I don't think I understand that analogy in terms of kernel code, can you give an example of what seat belts and bullet proof glass are in this context? Does that mean that previously in places where they only had CRCs, they added firew

So does that mean there is a significant difference between, for example, a malicious USB device versus a damaged USB device, from the kernel point of view? It seems that both would be sending incorrect data that the kernel should catch, ri

That still doesn't make it monolithic. It's not exactly rare for an open source project to have no API spec. If you want to replace a part you just look at the code and then implement that API. If you ask me a lot of systemd is ac

What you're describing doesn't match the GNOME HIG. Buttons should actually be on the bottom for dialogs that require you to read through and then make a choice: https://developer.gnome.org/hig/stable/dia

The situation with Glade is not because of malicious intent, please don't assume bad faith. No GTK developers are happy that Glade has basically been deprecated in GTK4, it was a necessity due to technical reasons. Note that it's
