FreeBSD has announced a new LLVM-derived code of conduct.

According to a 2018 survey "35% were dissatisfied with the code of conduct adopted in 2018, 34% were neutral, and 30% were satisfied." So, they held another survey at the start start of June:

Which code of conduct should FreeBSD adopt?

Retain the current code of conduct:

RESULTS

  • 4% favoured keeping the current code of conduct
  • 33% favoured the Go-derived code of conduct
  • 63% favoured the LLVM-derived code of conduct.

Thus, the Core Team, following the preference of a majority of active
FreeBSD developers, adopted the LLVM-derived code of conduct.

    The AC refered to kneeling in the context of the BLM movement. But I'm not surprised to see the typical trumptard point out the tiny flaw in the argument, while completely ignoring his comment about Trump threatening to have the players fired.

    I think this is their attempt at grappling with reality, finally there is a minor shift towards anti-Trump sentiment around here. Perhaps some boomers are finally realizing that reality is different from all the conspiracy nonsense peddled by their conservative talk shows.

      Please! Enough with the overly broad brush that seems to frequently used on Boomers.

      I'm not singling you out. I did take note of the fact you commented: ...some Boomers..., and NOT 'all Boomers'. Thank you for that. :-)

      But alas, your comment sparked the rant. Sorry.

      Boomers are more diverse than we get credit for.
      As an example, I am 60+ years old, Blackfeet Tribe(Native American), and am slightly to the left of Bernie Sanders for the most part...but voted for him both times...***sigh***
      My kids and grandkids are constantly raiding my music files.(it spans from the 1960's to present day musicians)
      Slightly over half of friends/acquaintances are 35 years old or younger.
      I grow some incredibly dank medicinal cannabis, legally of course.

      A good number of us are not 'hipsters', are not rednecks, are not city folk, but just a broad spectrum of USA culture and society.

      I will admit that the stereotype of the Boomer was , sadly, earned by a slight, but more vocal majority. :-(

    You and your pal are the idiots for thinking I am some reflexive Trump supporter or that I support Presidentially-forced firing of players who choose to kneel.
    This proves you can't have a discussion with some people. Your mind is closed.

    Important thing is both kneeling trends were started by mediocre football players known more for their kneeling than their ability to play.
