You see, part of this company-facing discussion had to do with current hiring policies, with gems like "we have never hired based on quotas, but going forward we will discontinue the practice" bandied about on stage. Such a stance could be misconstrued as an end to its illegal and discriminatory DEI policies at the company, something IBM, Red Hat, and others are ending or getting sued for.

The hell am I reading?

This is a very weird piece written very weirdly that misconstrues an automated process as deliberate cooperation.

Which I guess makes more sense when you look up the person the reposted article is reposting which seems to be some weird Trumpy asshole who is also somehow an open source advocate guy?

This is not good reporting, but congrats, I think you made me take Adobe's side on something and I would not have bet that was possible half an hour ago.

It's a thinly veiled maga piece. Time to boycott yahoo. This is Donny and friends controlling the media

The article was just scraped by Yahoo. It was originally posted to Android Police.

Hah. I fear you assuming Yahoo has an editorial line at all is giving them too much credit. All these pirated article aggregators are just regurgitating whatever algorithmically, they don't care.

Which button can I push to make all sides of this disappear from existence?
