Why did you reply to yourself?
2h··on Sourcehut will not blacklist the Go module mirror
> Drew went back in time to add -reuse to Go 1.19 and proxy improvements to the Go team's schedule

where did anyone say that?

2h··on Sourcehut will not blacklist the Go module mirror
did you read the update to the article, as it answers that question
2h··on Sourcehut will not blacklist the Go module mirror
did you read the update in the article? The Go team contact him directly and in private, as well as accepted responsibility for the situation regarding all small sites, not just SourceHut. So his actions did have an impact.
2h··on Sourcehut will not blacklist the Go module mirror
thats a cop out. If he accepted the quick fix, then Go team could just say "well it works for him, so now we dont need to do the full fix", or maybe they decide to slow play it. It was nearly two years, enough is enough.

2h··on Amazon Will Start Charging Prime Members for US Grocery Orders of Less Than $150
> WF in the store

AKA shopping. this service is useful, but as others have said it was never sustainable. would you do someones shopping for $10?

2h··on What the spread of universal basic-income schemes says about Americas safety net
Yes even $500 would be quite helpful for people down on their luck. It's not enough for rent, but just about everything else. You could get an old car, or clothes, shower, any number of vital goods to help you get back on your feet.
2h··on A large network of fake Google Maps comments/reviews and fake businesses
IF I think to insult them, I will make sure to take your comment into consideration. but since I HAVE NOT and do not intend to insult them, then it seems your point is moot.

bad netiquette is rude. Forcing people to internet search a comment just to understand it is quite rude.

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
> And is the necessary escalation when online-only tools have failed and the attacker will not relent

other tools are available (captcha, TLS fingerprinting, browser fingerprinting). if the moderator is not using these, its not a free permission for them to doxx someone.

so they have resulted to crime, to combat a problem user?
2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
this is a user posting on an issue tracker, so your example doesn't hold either.
2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
> A captcha doesn't keep out harassing users; they're human, after all.

its not my job to teach people how to police their own forums. nor is it the judicial systems job.

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
> If your position is "Well they should involve the courts first,"

no because no crime has been committed, unless you count the doxxing.

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
> tying the behavior to the person behind the behavior and bringing proper consequences to bear is the only regulatory system that actually works

nope. trolling online is not a crime, so no regulations are needed. its the same as if someone walks up to you in real life and calls you a jerk. you dont get to do anything about that. you just move on.

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
trolling online is not a crime, so no crime, so no right to face anyone.

Google Business Profile. its common courtesy to use the full name with the first use, THEN abbreviate.

is this a joke?

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
this is just more rationalizing. to justify doxxing, which is itself essentially stalking (or worse) should be a quite high bar, which hasn't been crossed, even in this situation.

If the troll was threatening life or some other crime, then fine do what you need to do. but the person is just essentially being annoying, that is not grounds to doxx someone. if they do not have the skills to keep out harmful users, thats their own fault, they should implement a captcha or some other tactic.

2h··on Official Warning: Zero3K
no, this is not acceptable. If you have an issue with someone online, ban their email, ban their IP and move on. It is not appropriate to go hunting this person in real life. you yourself have then become the creep, the person acting inappropriately. you've become the very person you have issue with.

to anyone reading this, DO NOT listen to the person I am replying to. Even if this extreme case seems "justified", its all too easy to fall down a slippery slope, where you start doxxing anyone that slights you. I have been the victim of this, its NOT OK.

2h··on FFhistory: Conclusion
> See, unlike many people I don’t regard FFmpeg as something unique (in the sense that it’s a project only Fabrice Bellard could create). It was nice to have around and it helped immeasurably but without it something else would fill the niche.

This comes off as highly insulting. "something else would fill the niche", do you really know that? and even if its true, you could probably say that same thing about any other landmark software, making the statement meaningless in addition to being rude.

I am inclined to give Konstantin leeway, as he was an FFmpeg developer, but even being in that position, I dont think he has any right to make a statement like this.
