@pattypat84 @FromKulak You're (probably unknowingly) posting faked photos. You should just delete this post so as not to contribute to misinformation. The reality is bad enough without people making things up.

No one is in charge. That's why they're cheap.

@cheesefries73 @nomadcoug No, but BYU beat the PAC-12 championship team in the same season BYU had a 5-0 record against the PAC-12.

@CanadayHen60416 @DanFriedman81 They do get published. We call them litrpg on Royal Road, or genre fiction by Indie Authors and presses dominating non-romance eBooks on Amazon.

And they make a little money here and there, sometimes a lit.

But by the big publishers? In tradpub stores? Not so much...

@beyoncegarden The cops could see the donuts right there on the dash!

(To be fair, they're actually just concerned about a possible overdose from a druggie and doing the right thing to help.)

@Jared_Andersen1 @CodeRed2976 Is with or without the piped in crowd noise from the speakers in RES?

Salter's actual throwing - 119 yards w/1 TD and 1/Int. @BuffedInPrime - How's that 450+ yards prediction looking? Defense maybe a little better than you thought?

Kudos to @paulevans_5 for offering to wager on his beliefs.

[Paul Evans @paulevans_5]

@BuffedInPrime Alright man. Let’s make a wager.

I give you $500 if he goes 450+

I get $100 if he’s less than 250

Anything in between is $0.

Deal?

I'm about to do something I think I've never done before, which is assert every bit of whatever authority I have as the person who discovered and wrote down the rules of open source.

After ten years of drama and idiocy, lots of people other than me are now willing to say in public that "Codes of Conduct" have been a disaster - a kind of infectious social insanity producing lots of drama and politics and backbiting, and negative useful work.

Here is my advice about codes of conduct:

1. Refuse to have one. If your project has one, delete it. The only actual function they have is as a tool in the hands of shit-stirrers.

2. If you're stuck with having one for bureaucratic reasons, replace it with the following sentence or some close equivalent: "If you are more annoying to work with than your contributions justify, you'll be ejected."

3. Attempts to be more specific and elaborate don't work. They only provide control surfaces for shit-stirrers to manipulate.

Yes, we should try to be kind to each other. But we should be ruthless and merciless towards people who try to turn "Be kind!" into a weapon. Indulging them never ends well.

"When you stop having a human connection with someone you disagree with, it becomes a lot easier to want to commit violence against that group.
What we as a culture have to get back to is being able to have reasonable disagreement, where violence is not an option."

Gutman has more viewers with a staff of 8 vs Colbert's staff of 100 and massive personal salary. The math is easy to do.
