Hilarious. Software development at Verkada is filled with "non-traditional backgrounds" leftist SJW types that spew neurotic delusional beliefs on Slack all day.
I bet management wishes they would have hired some real devs with backgrounds in software development and security. You reap what you sow.
>Just because something isn't specifically connected to race doesn't mean it is innocuous.
No one said otherwise. Luckily, "blacklist" is innocuous, and the only ones calling for its replacement and removal are neurotic leftists.
Dragons breathe fire, and my family burned to death. For my safety, please change your username to something that won't trigger me, your username is not innocuous. I see your username and all I can think about is my family burning.
Just because something isn't specifically connected to race doesn't mean it is innocuous.
>It's a minor thing, something you can live with individually, except that as a constant daily drumbeat.
Your entire argument is based on this pretence that is demonstrably false.
Getting reported to HR by these neurotic professional victims is not something you can "just shake off", you literally can't "just ignore it".
It's asymmetrical warfare, and the externalities are all on you, the microagressor.
All of this reminds me of the 90s when Evangelicals wanted schools to ban students from talking about, wearing clothing with, or playing anything related to Pokemon, because it was an affront and a "microagression" to their religion.
Here we are, just a few decades later and leftists and SJWs are now the ones playing the victims, being "microagressed".
>Who would make an HR complaint over one ill-considered remark?
It's painfully obvious you haven't been exposed to Bay Area/West Coast start-up culture (I envy your lack of exposure).
I've seen people getting reported to HR for the following things:
- Using a photo of a Sherpa (an actual photo, not a character or drawing) in a presentation to describe the concept of guiding people and systems to their desired outcome and state. They were reported for using racist caricatures of marginalized minorities
- Discussing shooting sports in a thread about hobbies. They were reported for making people feel unsafe
- Someone posted a screen shot of a Tweet in support of BLM, but the screen shot was from Blacktivist, a Twitter account that was part of a Russian propaganda campaign. Someone replied to the screen shot that maybe it should be taken down since it was literally created and pushed from a propaganda account. They were reported for being insensitive to PoC employees
These are just a few out of the dozens upon dozens. I'm sure many others here on HN could provide examples.
I wonder how much of it has to do with leftists and SJWs who would scream if sexual attraction between objectively beautiful people was shown on the big screen.
Body positivity, "Whiteness", and other deranged ideas are just not worth Hollywood fighting against.
It looks like you're misunderstanding those ideas. And it seems maybe the point of the article as well, since in a way it argues that both sexuality and body positivity (less perfection, more attraction) was better in older movies.
If you really have such strong opinions about this, can I tempt you to read what "body positivity" is actually about? And why "objectively beautiful"... is pretty subjective?
The offers of GrapheneOS and /e/ are very different. /e/ targets to be a usable alternative to a google-owned software, which includes for instance cloud storage and backup, access to third party proprietary apps, etc. While GrapheneOS is harder to use, but it does provide much better security hardening.
hey there phh; slightly tangential, but: What are your plans for phh-treble? To be honest, if you've got the bandwidth, I'd love for you to start something comparative to /e/ and CalyxOS.
With Generic Kernel Images (and APEX to an extent), do you see phh-treble likely replacing LineageOS as the preferred base for projects like /e/? Merci.
My goal for Phh-Treble remains the same, which is provide a good basis for a pure unmodified AOSP with good hardware support, so that other people can make whichever ROM they want with it. As such, I'm saddened that many ROMs, including /e/ still doesn't officially provide GSIs...
I haven't had a good look at either /e/ or CalyxOS, but /e/ looks like they are too focused on the marketing for my taste, /e/ really isn't known to be a contributor in term of source code to the community, their only contribution is bringing users (I do have a bit of respect for that). CalyxOS has nice things, it is much closer to what I'd want than GrapheneOS. CalyxOS tries to makes features closer to what you can get on a "standard" google-owner Android, and they are definitely a great value to the community, like SeedVault is a really nice addition for de-googlizing one-self. I feel that CalyxOS goes too much into security, while privacy/data-owning are already very nice features, and they restrict their user-base because of that.
I doubt that GKI would help phh-treble replace LineageOS. First, I'm happy there are LineageOS GSIs based on my work :-) But the real reason LineageOS persist is that most users want a ROM tailored for their own device. Sure one of the biggest real issue of phh-treble is the lack of security upgrade of the kernel, but from my experience discussing with many people asking me for device-specific ROM, the reason they want device-specific ROMs is really about feelings.
Most users feel a device-specific ROM will be more optimized. (no they are usually not Gentoo users). Usually they'll come to me with "hey, you have this feature that works on my device in GSI, but not in my device-specific ROM, could you help fix it?", when I ask why not just use my GSI, the answer goes with optimization, and the obvious answer is "It's so much more optimized that hardware features doesn't even work.".
I haven't had any crashes, but I've had more and more sites not work with Firefox. The payroll site I use for my small business is the most annoying one, I have to switch to Safari to run payroll.
Had Firefox updated and needed a restart? I get that crashed message on xubuntu 20.04 when opening a link in a new tab. Every time it confuses me for a moment then I remember why.
