The Best and Brightest of Haskell
Two small but important pull requests for Hakyll to start undoing the damage to tech culture:
https://github.com/jaspervdj/hakyll/pull/531
Add the Contributor Covenant. by misandrist · Pull Request #531 · jaspervdj/hakyll - GitHub
The reasons for having this are well-quantified at this point. From the site itself: Studies have shown that organizational cultures that value meritocracy often result in greater inequality. Peop...
https://github.com/jaspervdj/hakyll/pull/530
Remove `argumatronic.org` from examples. by misandrist · Pull Request #530 · jaspervdj/hakyll - GitHub
This woman is a well-known supporter of neo-Nazi ideologies, and has expressed quite a willingness to shoot anyone who disagrees with her. I don't know that she's a great example of someone a proje...
I'd highly recommend at least reading through them if nothing else.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Oh hey, it's Julie!
computionist
Yeah, one of the proud supporters of Moldbug and shooting people who disagree with White Supremacy.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Lol. No.
computionist
Yeah, actually.
But feel free to ignore her talking about that.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Have you met her? Have you talked to her?
computionist
In public.
Yeah.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
'cause I have. In person, even.
computionist
She's threatened me and anyone else who points out that she sponsored a known white supremacist.
Good for you.
They're always nice in person.
But then they write big checks to people who incite violence.
Hell, Trump can be absolutely charming.
Everybody loved Hitler.
So yeah.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Mmmm.
computionist
It's a ruse.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Right. She's the problematic one.
computionist
She is.
As is Chris, the de Goes cult, and plenty of others.

Just examine those screen shots.
You know, where she talks about shooting people who disagree with her, essentially.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
"cult!"
computionist
Even though her "disagreement" is on the actual humanity of people.
That's not something that should ever be up for debate.
Unless, of course, there are people who should be non-people.
In which case there's literally nothing to talk about.
And everything to point out to others as an example of how it is we continue down this path.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
I do not see her endorsing shooting people because of belief. I see a discussion about sport shooting after expressing concern that people off their rocker endorse violence against targets without trial or due process.
computionist
You're not reading them then.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
I am. You're being alarmist.
computionist
Whatever dude.
Nice to see that Haskell still has a full-on Nazi crowd.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Seig heil!
computionist
It's only not alarmist when the bullets aren't flying at your head.
Which you've clearly never experienced.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
I've had my share of life or death situations.
computionist
It's not sport shooting when it's at people.
Sure. Like driving?
Was it hard getting on the interstate that one time?
Or did someone you tried to murder actually fight back?
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Yup. Crossing the street. My daily brush with death. Mmmm. So good.
computionist
Could that be it?
Oh yeah there you go.
So fear.
Much danger.
Many hurt.
Wow.
T
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Such breakage.
computionist
Anyway, I think we've had enough here. You're clearly as much a fucker as they are.
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org set a profile picture
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Not yet. But I'm working on it.
computionist
Yeah, I bet. Klan Wizard no doubt.
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
Haven't started my own Hitler youth training ground yet.
computionist
Your life aspiration.
I'd say they don't take people living out of their mom's basements, but then I've seen YouTube.
That seems to be their main recruiting site.
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org
I was thinking the PHP section of stack overflow, but. That might work, too.
@TheWizardTower:matrix.org set their display name to TheWizardTower
computionist
Ironically they're quite a bit less Nazi than here, for example.
They actually hire people who aren't white males.
TheWizardTower
Maybe that's why they can't make a good language. Insufficient Jimmy rustling.
computionist
Hah yeah well, the funny thing about the Haskell Language itself is that it's mostly women and trans people who've contributed the major research.
What passes for "Commercial Haskell" now is largely just porting Rails to Template Haskell, failing, and then calling it a day.
So, yeah, I mean, you're still wronng.

I usually am. But that's part of the fun.
