@esrtweet The sqlite CoC is most excellent.

@LysanderBoomer The sqlite CoC is a noble attempt at doing well a thing that shouldn't be done at all.

@esrtweet Genuine question: Should we take your age into consideration when following your advice? I mean, does that still work in an environment where, when you were younger, you didn’t implement it, even though there’s a high probability you had already thought about it back then?

@ToniKoqi I'm sorry, I don't even understand your question.

@esrtweet Code of Conduct are needed to avoid public backlash. But they need to be reformatted to avoid Political Bias or controversial Bias.

@Qvixote_Roux "Reformatting" will never work, because the people who show up to stir shit using CoCs are master manipulators of language. The only way to keep them from doing damage is to deny them any opening at all.

@esrtweet Hehe. Here's my community's code of conduct: Don't be an asshole. If you see an asshole, please do not take any action other than notifying a moderator. We don't like assholes here.

@esrtweet When required by some third party I put this: “Be cool to each other. Don't post anything you wouldn't want your grandmother to see. If you are unsure, you probably shouldn't do it. You will be kicked if you are purposefully being a jerk. Don't make me have to write formal

@esrtweet Bingo. Feelings aren’t facts and these loony toons are causing more issues than they solve.

@esrtweet Let’s be honest, the following would cover 5-9’s percent of all problems: “Don’t peddle your bullshit woke religion here!”

@esrtweet Best practice https://sqlite.org/codeofethic...

@esrtweet number 2 is kind of dumb man. if someone is extremely good at making coffee first thing in the morning and after lunch but constantly lights fires in the office... how many of those will you go through

@esrtweet Or adopt the code of conduct od @h2hconference : Article 1. This is the Code of Conduct. Article 2. Anyone advocating or suggesting modifications to this Code of Conduct shall be immediately removed and banished from this organization. Article 3. There is no Article 4 or any

@esrtweet Hard agree. Get rid of CoC and HR & bring back strong leaders who take no BS from these entitled brats

@esrtweet Yes, and I'd throw job descriptions in there with the attempts to be exhaustive.

@esrtweet Sqlite had an interesting approach, pick your buddies and tell everyone else they are not welcome.

@esrtweet This has been my position when the Scala CoC was first introduced and it still is my position today. Thanks for writing it up and spreading the word.

@esrtweet IIRC, IDPA's largest time penalty was "failure to do right", and it was reserved for rules lawyers who weaponized the formal structure of the contest to subvert it. Our Republic should crib these concepts from you guys.

@esrtweet This post made my day - I'm glad to see you espousing on what I consider a universal topic; what you observe applies to most anything we attempt to control through political and legal structure.

@esrtweet It seriously took you this long to notice this?

@esrtweet Now that we are here let’s also ditch that manual where you call people losers

@esrtweet The foundation of the EU is "Codes of Conduct". This parallel explains why the whole system is shaking.

@esrtweet I love it. I rewrote it: Annoyance is a tax levied on presence: pay it in worth or pay it in absence

@esrtweet Words of wisdom from a master.

@esrtweet Explicit rules invite rules lawyers, the worst kind of people

@esrtweet The Letter of the Law never works. The Spirit of the Law is what created Western Civilization, despite our degeneracy and natural proclivity towards Legalism. Christianity is a relationship. God's Spirit dwells in us, convicting and inspiring. If you know, you know.

@esrtweet Just keep it professional.

@esrtweet They are never kind to those that are skeptical of their directives of what “kindness” looks like.

@esrtweet Character is „king“

@esrtweet Well between You, Linus, and Stallman

@esrtweet This needed to be said.
