Coraline Ada is one of the most useless cows in open source. She's been trying to ram her awful CoC into various projects because she can't code worth shit and wants to feel important. FreeBSD died when Randi Harper did the same. Linus was the guy keeping the crazies away and he got tired. Ada's CoC was adopted by linux. Predictably, soyboy coders don't understand why it's a bad thing.

The TAB gets to decide who participates in the development of an
operating system software with an estimated worth of 500 million US$, it has
a 40% market share in the server market, and it forms the basis of Android
with an 88% market share in mobile devices. Add to that political interests
and you have an uncountable number of reasons to subvert the TAB.

Imagine being an adult and not understanding that Amazon, Facebook, and Google would try to stuff the jury to use the CoC how they see fit. What reality do these dorks live in where a multi-billion company can't subvert vague and arbitrary internet rules?

The hacker community should split already. The independent hacker spirit used to sit along side leftism comfortably. Since SJW insanity took over, anyone who doesn't tow the line is called a techbro bigot.
