@nik eh not really the flutter project is especially horrible in answering community PRs/etc i have been trying to get a tiny dart library change merged for a year, and i've involved several dartlang team members at google before they were laid off and i still haven't gotten it merged https://github.com/dart-lang/cli_util/pull/94
basically this means you need to fork _every library_, and then you have to maintain a fork anyway
i usually lean toward more polite which is the problem, like one of my classmates is french and we spoke a bit (but this was like, my first time talking to him) and i thought i should use 'vous' but he used 'tu' and that was awkward >_>
@kaia anyway an example of how it worked at a 'woke' company that i worked for (facebook) is that hiring managers needed quotas in the _hiring process_ (pre-interview)
so you needed to have some women / POC / etc be interviewed, and then making it through the interview process is up to merit (and preexisting biases, really)
so basically this incentivizes hiring managers to actively seek out talented women so that they can hire more people in general
this also means if you're female you're basically getting invited to more interviews and getting rejected, which sucks
@lanodan @mei@4censord yeah my IRC client in awk doesn't use any TCP stuff (it's not useful for SSL connections anyway) it's just bidirectionally piped into nc or openssl s_client
@pry how distributed? erlang/BEAM's built in process system is very nice, and scales pretty well, but starts to run into issues around 100 nodes, from what i can tell i've read some papers on alternative frameworks that run on BEAM that let you distribute further, with fewer guarantees; if you would like some pointers
