- Comment on Expand North! So much room up there. 3 days ago:
In B.C.'s defense, imo, most of the land to the North is either too mountainous ^[1][2.1]^, or it has too harsh a climate ^[2.2]^. I think it’s also worth noting that 15.4% of B.C.'s lands are protected ^[]^.

Ten mountain ranges push west from the Canadian Rockies in the east to the Coast Mountains and the Vancouver Island Ranges in the west, and ancient temperate rainforests hug the coast. In between are rolling grasslands, lush valleys, tens of thousands of lakes, glacier-fed rivers, and even semi-arid desert. Mountains cover 75% of the province.

[…] Pronouns are a thing that harms nobody […]
This feels like a hasty generalization. For example, if one is experiencing gender dysphoria, we could assume that misgendering them with their undesired pronouns would cause them psychological distress ^[1]^ — ie harm.

It’s not a phobia […]
For the sake of argument, Merriam-Webster defines the “phobia” suffix as:
intolerance or aversion for ^[1]^
as well as
exaggerated fear of ^[1]^
That being said, one can define a words however they wish — imo, all that matters is that those engaged in a conversation together all use the same definitions. If you would like to reserve the “phobia” suffix to represent only “exaggerated fear of”, what would you propose in its stead to represent “intolerance or aversion for”?

Yeah, I’ve heard report of that bug in Boost before [1] [2].
Out of curiosity, what does it look like for you?

It’s not off-topic when the person in question is involved.
As stated in the title, the topic is concerning the AI bots that are spamming GitHub repos ^[1]^. I personally encountered the bot in nutomic’s repo ^[2]^, so I used it as an example. Given this, your comment feels off-topic.

Yeah, I figured that, but I don’t understand how it’s relevant to this post.
- Comment on There now exist bots that spam GitHub repos with AI generated solutions to issues 4 months ago:
I’m not sure I understand the relevance of your comment. Could you explain?
- Comment on There now exist bots that spam GitHub repos with AI generated solutions to issues 4 months ago:
[…] Who’s that […]?
I presume they are referring to @nutomic@lemmy.ml ^[1]^. They are one of the main Lemmy developers ^[1.1]^.
[…] what does he have to do with this post?
I presume they are bringing up @nutomic@lemmy.ml because the example GitHub repository that I cited ^[3]^ is owned by @nutomic@lemmy.ml ^[2]^; that being said, specifically regarding their claim itself that @nutomic@lemmy.ml is transphobic ^[4]^ and is a genocide denier ^[4]^ is entirely off topic, imo.
I will make no comment on the veracity of the claim itself without further evidence. I do not wish to speak for @nutomic@lemmy.ml — I will let them speak for themself here should they wish.
