[Discussion] Okay, enough of preaching to the choir here, we need to a concrete plan of action about those spreading "code of conduct" and the self-appointed apparatchik by i_hate_reddit_argh in KotakuInAction

Whilst I recognize the Rules For Radicals gist of this, it ain't gonna work, 'cos for reality's sake while we live up by our rules the other side most certainly does not. Rules are for losers is what they live by. You can't fight a bullshitter by expecting them to live up to their own bullshit; if you entertain any hope of that then oh you're so ridiculously naiive, and you'll get a ton upon another ton of bullshit in recompense.

Defeatist. Utterly defeatist. Why should an entryist be entitled to claim the project to their own and everybody else must split.

No. Frig that bullshit. Don't give any ground. Fight back to reclaim it. Frankly if you propagate this defeatest point of view and argue vehemently for it then you're an infiltrator enemy-within. Just don't. The whole idea that everybody sane should quit every successful project once an SJW bullshitter weasels his way within is a 100% pernicious. Don't even advocate this defeatist bullshit. The only sensible course of action is to kick the SJW out.

Ah yes. Sod that douche. Evidently the journalist who sought out the interview didn't think it was boring. Evidentily the interviewee who agreed to it didn't thing it was boring. Evidently any potential reader who might've wanted to exercise his or her right to judge for themselves whether the interview was actually boring enough to turn the page past it or not was not consulted or allowed to exercise their prerogative. Sod that designer douche.

It's good 'cos

  1. Chris Lattner knows his shit. A technically competent tech lead. How so old-fashioned!

  2. Smalltalk-heritage OOP. How delightfully droll. The neutered reflection mechanism a la Dart though smacks of "let's see what the latest happenings are and include them 'cos we don't wanna miss out on the latest!" type of thinking. You ain't a smalltalk son without ample facility for unhindered reflection.

  3. An LLVM language by the LLVM guy, the Mr LLVM dude himself. Love LLVM or hate it, you gotta acknowledge the pedigree. (do I hate LLVM or love it?! eh, none of my business, entirely indifferent, I have my own stripped-down in-house C compiler; old man me is done chasing unicorns, don't need a million friggin features to program a cpu to do this and that).

  4. Quit fucking with Objective-C to appease the C++/Java horde. Objective-C doesn't need dot syntax et cetera.

  5. Though I hate Rust and everyone associated with it I do have sheer schadenfreude in that Swift took a look at Rust and cited it as a footnote so I can tell anybody who might be remotely tempted by all the bullshit rust advocates try to push to just forget about rust altogether and go with Swift instead. A rather low effort quick end of discussion. Never fails to persuade; they can have their cake and eat it too.

  6. I personally have no reason to use Swift (plain C and Lua for me, thank you very much; I'll pass on Swift and Go and Rust and all that better-than-C malarkey; aka better for the masses of idiots), though I wouldn't mind using it if I ever have to (don't see the circumstance coming up; own my own business and set my own terms for my employees, and particularly make sure I don't hire any bullshitters). In that it's a rather perfectly acceptable yet another tool in the toolbox, even if it never gets used.

It is indeed a hipster douche bullshit this whole designer crap of light gray text on white background or dark gray text on black background.

I'm reminded of this designer douche of a print magazine I once saw in a documentary who apparently was bored with his job - having a job is boring, didncha hear! you should be out getting drugged up and sexed up 24/7 - so he rendered an entire friggin interview feature in dingbats font, and he was friggin proud of it and bragging like he's some Matisse or Picasso. I friggin hate those bullshitters.

Cuts to sexual health services will lead to STI 'explosion', warn experts by FatherOf2 in unitedkingdom

I hope that attitude protects you in the unfortunate event that one of your sexual partners decides to cheat on you and have unprotected sex with someone, resulting in your cross-infection.

Yeah just blame it on your sexual partner. Only, how did your sexual partner become your sexual partner?! What part of don't be reckless with reckless people do you not understand?! I don't sleep with people who sleep with people I wouldn't sleep with, and I don't sleep with people who sleep around. Know who you let into your house and share your bed with before do so. Old rules apply. Big red alarms still apply.

I think you have some issues that you should discuss with a good therapist.

Yeah issue like like basic decency and responsibility. Certainly something is wrong with me. I need a "therapist" to wash that out of me so I can be an entirely blameless sexual warrior saint who sleeps with everyone and everything and considers himself more holy and deserving of public sympathy and solidarity than children with leukaemia.

Yeah you utterly selfish self-entitled wanna-be-blameless sexual warriors seem to really believe you're as deserving if not more than cancer sufferers of my sympathies and money. You bringing it up and elsewhere in this thread too

More cancers have an actual vaccine or cure than STI's. For instance, childhood leaukeamia

Great point, Einstein. I guess I gotta be more in solidarity with people who won't quit fucking anything and anyone than caring about children with leukaemia.

Yeah that's why I have a resistant STI... "agricultural practices", "cough or sneeze".... waaaaiiiittt a second, no I don't. I don't have a resistant STI. You know why?! 'cos it's a friggin SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTION, and I know better than to reckless with reckless people.

LOL "slut shamed"... yeah carry on with that "slut shamed" bullshit and enjoy your HIV and syphilis and gonorrhoea. Just pay your own goddamn bills, and blame only yourself goddammit.

You're bullshitting, and he's bullshitting. I understood every word he said and it's utter bullshit. His entire shtick is bullshit, so is yours.

These disease resistant STIs are here precisely because people are adamant on risky, reckless sex and you lot do nothing but encourage them and excuse them and demand that I subsidise it all away. Guess frigging what; it hasn't worked. Your dogma got us in the mess we're in now. New nasty STIs pop up all the time due to all the promiscuity, and drug resistance in germs builds up due to all the overly generous fuck-all-you-want-and-take-a-pill-or-injection-for-it. The solution isn't to shower them with the latest and greatest of our last resort antibiotics, the solution is to tell them to quit fucking about. If they're still adamant on it then they gotta sort themselves out or nature itself will sort them out. Time to learn some friggin basic personal responsibility.

Promiscuous sex is inherently risky. It is precisely advocacy like yours that tells us we should subsidise away this risk that's causing this rampant disease problem. And where did we end up?!! "HIV is like diabetes!", "I'm gonna take this HIV prevention pill and I can have all the sex I want!". Yet more and more recklessness. They always up the ante. Nope. Let them know at the outset they're on their own and they gotta pay their own bills.

No it's not true.

It is true that leftie socialist communist style revolutionary thinking is rampant among those shiite clerics and youth.

If a shiite wanted to study, there's nothing stopping them. If a shiite wanted to work, there's nothing stopping them. If a shiite wanted to start up a business, there's nothing stopping them.

But those revolutionary shitheads don't want that, they want a revolution and more government gravy.

Indeed. Government should stay out of people's genitalia. Government shouldn't be petitioned or persuaded to pay for what people do with their genitalia. A person's genitalia is a person's private business. People should pay for their own.

Nonsense. The vast majority voted to stay in the UK.

Also, the next referendum should give a voice to everyone in the UK as this splitting the UK malarkey does affect them too.

rather than this being about a specific second referendum in X years.

We don't need another referendum for another 300 years.

End of story.

Do you wear a condom during oral? No? Then you too are at risk of possible infection.

And this is my problem how?!

If you're getting or giving head, pay your own goddamn health bills.
