@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ@wilbanks -- but some people are considered untouchable. and that's who Morozov goes after. i say that's good. -
@davewiner@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ i think some of the *ideas* are considered untouchable, and thus going after them is good. -
@wilbanks@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ -- no john. sometimes people do dishonest things. and they need to feel fear of being outed. -
@davewiner@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ i don't see Jane being dishonest, yet being compared to a genocidal dictator. That kinda thing. -
@wilbanks@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ -- believe me, i've gotten hit really hard too. i make software without working at a bigco or univ. -
@davewiner@avantgame@sivavaid@EthanZ thick skins and receptivity to criticism are both poorly distributed in tech. that's a real problem. -
@wilbanks@davewiner@EthanZ I would just like to be critiqued for WHAT I MAKE and not someone's third-hand incorrect notion of what I make
