Dramacow Coraline Ada Ehmke / Corey Dale Ehmke - tl;dr Rules for thee but not for me

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
So I wanted to follow the guy who was at the center of the whole opalgate shit:

Brendan Eich is following him. Brendan Eich, if you'll recall, was a founder and CEO of Mozilla for years, until someone noticed he (as a private citizen) donated money to some anti-gay marriage group in California. I'm for gay marriage and all, but that's some serious bullshit.

Welp Brendan, hope you keep on fighting the good fight.

Actually, gitlab. Deploy your own in your basement and no one can ever censor you, except if you commit child porn or such.

What sucks is how important github is nowadays for professional networking.

Though otherwise, gitlab is good stuff. And actually, their hosted product is pretty awesome too, they have free private repositories. You've gotta get a paid account on github for that.

That happening was one of the first times I noticed SJWs as actually being a cancer and something not progressive or liberal at all. Not that there haven't always been nasty shitheads on either side of the political spectrum, but this was the first it was obviously impinging on things in a qualitatively different way.

The number mentioned in the severance aside, I would be surprised if he was getting 240k. Even with what Bay Area tech companies are willing to shell out now, that still seems high for the role and the fact that he was remote. I imagine he made good money, and still does with his new gig, but I can't imagine them paying him quite that much. I could be wrong here.

He has actually altered his resume to no longer show dates.

It's very likely that he is not going to be working at stich fix in a year.

I like how we're the only ones who ever brought this problem up. Though that's a pretty shit way to fix "my hashtag politics make me insufferable".

I'd extend that to whoever there advocated her immediate employ, with no need for background or reference checks.

Nicole Sanchez has "resigned" from GitHub as of July 14th. "Financial pressure" was cited as a factor:
BuzzFeed said:
The team was tasked with improving diversity and inclusion practices and strengthening the company’s commitment to community. But some employees worry the company’s resolve has faltered in recent months, as financial pressure has escalated and the social impact team lost some of its initial support.

There's this podcast from November 1, 2016 where Nicole Sanchez gives Twitter slapfights and the loved "Contributor Covenant" as justifications for Coraline's then-unstated $240,000 salary:
Nicole Sanchez said:
We also hired the woman who wrote Contributor Covenant to be on that team — Coraline Ada Ehmke, another transgender woman — and she is well known in the community as somebody who has advocated for codes of conduct online. She wrote what we considered to be the platinum standard in Contributor Covenant, and we hired her. She’s on the Community and Safety team because she is very well versed in how things can go sideways for vulnerable people online.

We’re really proud of this, because we have a specific viewpoint on this that we’ve asserted around how you should feel when you’re on GitHub. One of them is safe, and that for us is a big step forward in the last year around deciding that we were going to have a specific viewpoint as opposed to say, Well, everything is OK; just stay away from each other. Like we actually don’t behave that way, and we got a lot of pushback for it. But you know what? This is the community we’re trying to build. If you’re going to really open the doors to new developers from underrepresented backgrounds, you better make sure they have a great experience when they come along.

Speaking of "new developers from underrepresented backgrounds", GitHub's salary for an "Entry Level Software Developer" is reported as $61,167.

I think the time of the SJW crusade is coming to a slow end

Not because of cultural blow back but just because there idea's don't make money. No company can just keep shelling out dollars to hire "people" that activly harm the very same organization that pays them.

Thank god for Capitalism!

This is why SJWs hate capitalism.

The article is dated 2015. Why does KIA have a thread on it now? Why are you reading KIA?

Unsurprising since Emhke has been pushing the "meritocracy is sexist" meme for years. GitHub kicked off their whole SJW run by removing their lobby rug that had the word meritocracy on it.

I find it funny you're surprised by GethN7 reading KiA.

Apparently, Ehmke is now shilling their bullshit on Shanley's 'Model View Culture"
Click to expand...

Ehmke and Shanley are peas in a fuckin' pod, they're both professional shit stirrers and trolls. I can't imagine a better place for Ehmke's bullshit than MVC.
 
Coraline, who refuses to follow her own code of conduct, on exceptions:

Coraline on why people have stopped replying to her emails GitHub fired her:

I'm assuming it's related to some English language talk with heavy use of latest the diversity-in-tech buzzwords she wants to give in Brazil:

It looks like she was eventually able to get in though a blind review and not political allies like every job, so now Brazilians get to be lectured on privilege and oppression in English from a perpetual political hire.
