 @joepie91:pixie.town | yes, there are issues. and right now they are small enough that the community mostly gets by, but they are definitely there, and as Nix is rapidly growing more popular those problems will be exacerbated significantly if we do not think about durable ways to handle this sort of thing going forward | 14:07:21 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | I have already described one such issue above | 14:07:35 |
 @zimbatm:numtide.com | please be specific | 14:07:38 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | (the IRC incident) | 14:07:41 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | isn't that withing the bounds of normal human interactions? | 14:07:57 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | you seem to be expecting a level of specificity that is unachievable for this type of discussion | 14:07:58 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | * isn't that within the bounds of normal human interactions? | 14:08:02 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | we're necessarily having miscommunications, and different views of the world, this is not going away | 14:08:27 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | as I have stated above, that isn't the problem. the problem is that we, as a community, do not have a durable way/culture to deal with bad actors. | 14:08:48 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | so they're really empty claims then | 14:08:49 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | Jonas Chevalier: I very strongly get the impression that you are making no effort to actually understand the problem, and are rather looking for something that lets you dismiss the claims and "move on" | 14:09:27 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | not at all | 14:09:46 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | then why are you so quick to jump to "they are empty claims then" while barely giving me any opportunity to clarify anything, and while the discussion is about systemic problems that you seem unwilling to recognize because they don't fit your very specific and immediate frame of what constitutes a 'problem'? | 14:10:28 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | ok we're back into rhetoric territory | 14:10:52 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | it's clear that you would prefer for there not to be conflict on this topic, and that is no different for me | 14:10:55 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | but that doesn't make the problem go away | 14:11:00 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | please explain the systemic issues then | 14:11:15 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | I have already attempted to do so above, and you have not engaged with that other than seemingly dismissing them as 'abstract' | 14:11:42 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | how can I understand something, if you cannot point me to the specific problems? | 14:12:07 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | unless you can indicate specifically what part is unclear, what part you don't understand, what part doesn't relate to your experience of the community, there's not really any way for me to clarify anything | 14:12:12 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | Jonas Chevalier: systemic issues are, by definition, not "specific problems" | 14:12:26 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | specific problems are what originates from systemic issues | 14:12:38 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | and we can either try to deal with an ever-faster-growing mountain of "specific problems" as the community grows, or we can address the source | 14:12:53 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | so who gets to define what is a problem, if we cannot talk about it. I really don't get it | 14:12:59 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | which is the systemic issue and necessarily more abstract | 14:13:01 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | let's say we start having more people asking stupid questions in the community | 14:13:45 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | Jonas Chevalier: we've been doing nothing but talking about it. but as long as you cannot engage with the explanations in a way that's not "dismissing them", there's no way to progress this | 14:13:52 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | that's my concern with your response | 14:14:03 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | at that point we can identify that as a systemic problem? | 14:14:11 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | you seem pretty much convinced that anything abstract isn't worth being concerned about | 14:14:15 |
