It's pretty funny that we are at that point again.

Deplatformed from Boston means that you have something interesting to say that makes middle class busy bodies uncomfortable.

Even PG had something to say about that:

>Of course, if they have time machines in the future they'll probably have a separate reference manual just for Cambridge. This has always been a fussy place, a town of i dotters and t crossers, where you're liable to get both your grammar and your ideas corrected in the same conversation. And that suggests another way to find taboos. Look for prigs, and see what's inside their heads.

With regard to being able to create a "master" database, use a "female" connector, hold a "stand up" meeting, or greet people with "hey guys," we certainly are.

What's the problem with stand-up meeting?

Some people can't stand up.

Having lived through an actual armed insurrection: I hope you get treated for whatever mental illness has caused you to lose touch with reality.

That crosses the line badly. You can't post like this here, and we ban accounts that do. Please don't do it again.
