SoylentNews is people

Journal by The Mighty Buzzard

In case you haven't heard, FreeBSD has a new code of conduct that's seemingly pulled straight from the shit-spewing face of a blue-haired intersectional feminist.

Me, I refuse to contribute to any coding project with a code of conduct designed to protect people of one political ideology from those who disagree with them. They're of course welcome to do what they like but they'll be doing it without my help in any way.

    That's not true. People's prejudices come into it. Basically it is what the employers believe rather then the reality. If an employer believes that men are better at math, they're more likely to hire men for more pay, even in the face of evidence that women are at least the equal of men. There's other believes that come in, such and such a group is more likely to be thieves, so don't hire them for any wage, even though it is a huge generalization. For reasons such as these, employers are willing to pay more.
    People, including employers, are often not rational actors.
