@diablomarcus that whole [A-Z]-list discussion made me cringe, plus diversion from gender, though @bkuhn's honesty about fame is touching.
-
@diablomarcus in-context fail. What is odd/disturbing?
-
@mlinksva,being a little bit famous feels great, esp. for someone who grew up treated poorly by peers. To deny that would be self-deception.
-
@bkuhn Doesn't that sentiment run counter to all statements about non-code contributions to FLOSS being important?
-
@bkuhn honesty part I said was touching, should've said is admirable. I wish you max fame in service of freedom, if it feels good, bonus. :)
-
What would you say to http://is.gd/XpSovR (she is an author of couple of FLOSS programs) ? Or you don't consider yourself *that* famous?
-
(sorry, URL should go to whole page not just one paragraph)
-
Hmm,I don't see honesty about self is admirable,IMO it's more of a character flaw if one isn't. BTW,I wish I didn't like being liked so much
-
@tomlegg, I should have said "contributions",not "code", but I think I was at the character limit anyway. 4 letter word for "contribution"?
-
Depending on how much the context would aid understanding, “help” could fit the bill.
-
You're famous to me!

We have the technology to measure bits that little? Nanofame, by David Bowie.

@bkuhn self-deception runs very deep in all, thus I say extraordinary honesty admirable, but of course gross self deception a char flaw...
-
@bkuhn I find at least curious idea that self-deception in order to convincingly deceive others -> big brains http://ur1.ca/rqbm
-
@mlinksva, Perhaps I'd prefer a smaller brain. I've known many who are clearly self-deceiving to manipulate others. I find such deplorable.
-
why? I am not a big fan of #ESR but those three essays I always considered the best what he did.
-
@mcepl, I don't believe that software freedom is a "gift culture". Rigorous studies have shown plurality reasons for participation are moral
-
@mcepl, & before you ask "what studies?", I refer you to Rishab #Gosh's seminal work: http://ur1.ca/7xdea & http://ur1.ca/7xdec

@fontana, any leadership regime or written Constitution is prone to corruption,as we see w/ proprietary relicensing. We must try nonetheless
-
@diablomarcus I have gathered that. I still don't know what was said or how, why, when or where was said.
-
@bkuhn oh, it's such a common one that its lack is something special I guess
