hey tef this is the sort of thing I was talking about re python community and drama

tldr apparently some guys at a python conference had a slide with some non-sexist-but-still-sexual nerdjokes about forking and dongles, and not only got thrown out of the conference but got fired from their jobs

oh no people held accountable for their actions when work paid them to be there and represent the company

Because having a basic understanding of what a computer actually does isn't a bad thing?
Because if you want to be a programmer instead of a script monkey you need to have at least a basic understanding of how computers operate and work?

I'm not saying you need to know bitwise operations, but good god man, counting by 2's isn't hard at all!

to program, do you need to understand the language your compiler/p-lang interpreter was written in
do you need to understand assembly
do you need to understand machine code
do you need to understand CPU design
do you need to understand semiconductor design
do you need to understand quantum tunneling

the entire point of programming languages is to provide a level of abstraction where, for the most part, you don't need to understand or even know what lies underneath.

posting their picture to get them fired because you think you're Joan of arc is too far in the other direction though

actually maybe it's good he was fired because if my boss would fire me for telling my friend a dick joke, they're probably way uptight at work

she was the obvious catalyst for him getting fired tho so that's where the anger is coming from, i guess. the guy seems to be remorseful and apologetic for his actions, at least. i mean as a complete bystander it just seems like she should have talked to them / confronted them before putting them on blast ion twitter like that. but im a male and have never experienced sexual harassment in such a particularly male dominant field before, so i cant really say how successful that course of action would be in most situations.

that's a good reason not to talk to people too much. if they tell an off-color joke and you try to politely wave it off or ignore it, you could be seen as a collaborator :ohdear:
