I'm sure his lawyers are very frustrated with him. He has (and continues) to make WPEngine's entire case.
Just look at the judges order, it's filled with his social media comments. https://www.documentcloud.org/...
Then instead of simply complying (this is an injuction, WPE hasn't won anything), he taunts the judge who will be deciding his case. That's moronic to say the least.
Something is clearly going on with him.

I'd love to get some Slashdot coverage of Bluesky's opensource and data roots.
1. Bluesky is a public benefit company (they can legally prioritize keeping their data open over profits)
2. Bluesky is federated (can bridge with other federated systems)
3. Uses the open-source AT protocol

I'm much more excited about these things than the rest of the plafform

I'm surprised I haven't seen posts about Bluesky's opensource goals and roots. 1. Bluesky is a public benefit corporation which has the goal of keeping data open and portable in its charter. The company can defend against a hostile takeover just by showing the buyer would close access to data, etc. 2. Bluesky is federated and uses the AT protocol. https://atproto.com/ It can be bridged with other protocols

You hire a liberal arts music major as head of security to fill a gender diversity quota, and then you're surprised by this?

This is low, even for Slashdot and you know this.

TORONTO - A co-founder of Black Lives Matter Toronto

There's no single organization called BLM. Anyone can create a group and call themselves BLM. BLM is really just a Twitter hashtag.

Whenever someone attributes something to BLM, ask them who exactly said that thing. Normally you'll find out it was a random activist someone ( if that thing was said at all )

It relates more to Stereotype Threat. It's not that black American cultures do not see engineering as a prestigious career. But rather they don't see themselves as engineers. They then self-select themselves out of the educational track needed for these jobs.

Stereotype threat originates both from within the Black communities ( Studious kids are picked on for "acting white" ), and externally ( Teachers do not push Black kids as hard as they do other racists due to their bias ).

The typical "they're not smart enough" comment, even though years of studying the racial education and occupational gaps have shown us otherwise. For some reason science goes out the window when discussing race.

We could consider it isn't racial bias. But then we have years of scientific research ( remember science? ) that tells us otherwise.

Then you wonder why your bigoted policy ends up with lots of incompetent diversity candidates.

Aren't you begging the question? Any proof what you said is what actually happens? Because I believe what happens is that by casting a "wider net" recruiters do get minority candidates who are equally qualified.

Being aware of race and related problems does not necessarily make one a racist. What you're not taking into consideration is that underrepresented minorities stay out of these fields because they feel they do no "belong" ( Self-select due to Stereotype Threat for instance). There are also external forces at play.

Having a diversity problem helps younger students see the possibility of having a career in engineering.

Nice try but if you look at the actual numbers, facebook, google, etc.. are hiring a *higher* percentage of minorities than are graduating from college.

Citation please? Where are those "actual numbers" you reference?

But here's my citation, putting black CS grads at 4.5% but hires at 2%...

But last year, 4.5% of all new recipients of bachelor's degrees in computer science or computer engineering from prestigious research universities were African American, and 6.5% were Hispanic, according to data from the Computing Research Association.

When it comes to diversity, reasoning goes out the window.

None of the links you posted shows a causal link between Intel's Diversity Initiatives and ending support for the science fair.

Do you actually believe Intel could not afford $306M for both programs?

TFA itself quotes the reason Intel dropped the funding. Intel wants to focus on more "applied" programs...

Mr. Barrett said. “But they appear to be more interested in applied things, like” Maker Faire, an all-ages event that showcases homemade engineering projects.

But don't let the facts get in the way of a good hate-filled post.

Thank you for that observation. Apparently racism does not exist as well. Just read the comments on any diversity article. Almost every top rated comment proclaiming racial bias does not exist in tech. And you are a SJW for saying so.

The difference is that ageism does affect many Slashdot readers. Sexist and racism apparently not so much.

No one's trying to mislead you. The percentages stay the same for new hires. Many SV firms release their new hire data every year and blacks make 1% and hispanics roughly 2-3%. Source: Annual Diversity Reports from Yahoo/Google/Microsoft/Facebook. These reports are not too hard to find if you really care to look.

There is a running and incorrect assumption ( bias ) in Slashdot discussions that minorities are not graduating from top US universities. This isn't true, as Blacks make up 4.5% of top university graduates, and hispanics make 6.5%. A combined 11% of CS/CE graduates from top US schools. But they end up with 3% of the jobs in many of the top firms.
