Re: PyCruise 2016
#3This is the coolest thing I've seen in a while when it comes to conference. As someone with a young family, I cringe when I have to think about going to another city for a conference, which is all the time because I live in Cleveland. Its not the travel, I rather like traveling: its leaving the wife with the kids and just up and going. This allows me to take the kids and wife, and not feel too bad about abandoning them to fend for themselves for a week.

This is exactly why I'm organizing it. I have two kids (and a husband who likes to have me around), and it's always a bit of chaos when I leave for a conference.

Am I the only one here who finds these do more harm than good? I specifically avoid cons to boycott this political correctness.
Its also a slap in the face to the maturity of python developers. I'm offended to read it.
Frankly, I don't want my pic blasted around the world for a joke.

Where does that CoC suggest inflaming social media mobs?

Once this is all over, I'd be happy to write up a road map for how I did it! Maybe someone in the JS world will pick up the banner.

It's fine if you're offended by it - this means you're exactly the sort of developers conferences want to filter.
Raising a good community is extremely challenging, lots of people feel excluded and making an inclusive conference is an extremely challenging task - it's also super important for the atmosphere.

I will treat this as if you don't know.
Look on github at pycon code of conduct. See adria Richards in the logs?
Look up the blog post where they pulled the pycon code of conduct from geekfeminism wiki.
Lives have been ruined, in part because the integrity of these projects are being lost to outside pressures distracting us from accomplishing technical goals.
Python community is and has been open and diverse. We even let non-programmers into them and real programmers have been fired.
If you do support codes of conduct, know that its not needed. Civility is and has always been apart of hacker culture.
We don't care what you look like. We care if you code. We help each other.
