Dave Copeland :ruby: on Nostr: I'm less concerned with people like Ruby Central and Pragmatic Engineer ...
I'm less concerned with people like Ruby Central and Pragmatic Engineer de-platforming David Rails - I just want them to simply NOT platform him. Imagine how much heartache RC could've saved themselves by simply not having him at Rails Conf. He wasn't asking to be there, and they didn't have to "take a stand" - just simply have the conference. But they didn't do the simple thing and look at the fallout. For what benefit? None. We understand his ideas. We don't need them amplified.
