@Athena it doesn't matter to me what policy they end up with. If this is representative of their approach to ethics Rust is dead to me.

@Athena 'I want the thing so I will do the thing, but I don't want people to yell at me quite as much so I will mention their concerns as I handwave them away as unworthy of consideration. I am important so what I want is more important than the future of the planet so they will be cool with that.'
You just know that whoever wrote that post has at least three bitcoin wallets and has tried to insert Blockchain into projects that didn't need it in any way.

I understand you're frustrated, but I don't think this kind of language helps anyone.
Tell me you're not used to having to face the people your actions have harmed without etc. etc.
That "I don't think this kind of language is helpful" phrase is a fairly solid litmus test for if someone is just trying to shut down an inconvenient line of debate.
Which, in fairness, hardly needs much testing when they admit it in the OP, but nonetheless, it's a cowardly way to address it.

cited as reason to allow LLM contributions experimentally:
Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy, we should justify policy on the basis of how something is impacting our ability as a project to deliver a really great programming language.
if the orphan grinder lets us make a better programming language then FIRE THOSE BABIES UP
@Athena "we shouldn't be using ethical concerns as a basis for policy" is an extremely succinct summary of 2026 so far, i'll give them that. but seriously, what the everlasting fuck.
-
@Athena wow what a fucking disaster
and the "we could not reach consensus so let's just, ban debate"
there's a vibe of entryism from their discussion: the pro-AI folks have ensured they get to veto banning AI altogether under the banner of lack of consensus
-
@clarfonthey @Athena “you underestimate how many people on the team are pissed about that and want it to change but need to be diplomatic about it so they don't lose their jobs or positions”
historically this is a great way to not change anything
@jepyang this is a maintainer who calls accessibility "trivial" and suitable for LLM
they're not interested in changing shit

@Athena I guess I'm rewriting my last 6 months of low-level code in Zig, then.
-
@clarfonthey you literally just wandered over to someone's feed to shut them down for speaking up and being mad that they're aren't speaking up the way you want them to?
Yeah you're gonna get chastised, you don't shut people down and then complain that no one is speaking up.

@jepyang @Athena@clarfonthey also thanks for being explicitly clear that accessibility is suitable for ai slop, my disabled ass is never looking at Rust again
-
@clarfonthey so, uh, go on ahead and propose your policy or whatever? nobody here is stopping you? you…literally showed up to this thread to start an argument…??

@jepyang are you literally incapable of reading down the thread to see what happened to the argument or do you just like bothering people for no reason

@jepyang @Athena@mxjaygrant@triangletoot.party @jepyang @Athena decided to just block you for being incapable of reading but might as well reply:
in case you're unwilling to read, we literally discussed this shit and concluded the discussion. you don't need to bring shit back up again because you're incapable of reading and feel like yelling at some random person on the internet for no reason

@Athena That position also uses ethics as a basis for policy.
It's the same crap as insisting tech shouldn't be political. (Which is a political stance, mostly by those openly or unknowingly supporting the far-right.)

@jepyang cool, so you also can't read
the whole point was that there was a reason to argue and we discussed it. you could argue that it was a shit reason but failing to note that the discussion ended in both sides telling the other to enjoy the rest of their day and instead just being like no, I want to specifically make you not have a good day is a dick move
-
@mxjaygrant holy fuck
@jepyang yeah, I got screenshots of that before the maintainer decided to throw a pity party for themselves and block everyone
