PSF is exactly the kinda organization the current administration explicitly does not want funded.
Thank the PSF self-righteous priestly leadership for outing themselves. This year’s competition for Darwin award is gonna be fierce.
For my opinion to change:
-
remove the PSF code of conduct
-
remove politics from PSF. No political stances
-
replace the current leadership with folks who are not priests, so this crap doesn’t keep repeating
Being open, inclusive and non-bigoted is the non-political stance.
This administration has repeatedly been shown to be vindictive and the mallot shaped claw back clause will likely be used to hurt anyone foolish enough to accept it in order to coerce whatever is politically favorable to the admin at that time.
Just hold the funds for two years. Clause expires.
If the claw back occurs during the two year interm, nothing lost.
So the claw back clause is not a show stopper.
Why take funds from a litigious source knowing full well they will attempt to embroil you in legal action for your intended standard operation?
You make a great point. And if you wrote the article and made that argument, i’d be cheering.
You are right! It’s just not PSF argument nor position.
The problem anti inclusion is at odds with the west as well.
There is almost no benefit to siding with the minority political opinion and the definitional exclusion of the rest of the world.
The affects of anti-white discrimination policies (DEI) is alienation of white people. Luckily most white people are too dumb to properly respond until they are not. White people may march towards tribalism matching the rest of the world. Expect many subgroups to close themselves off.
What you should do if you are white:
-
if possible, move to a state|country that is not actively discriminating against you or taxing you into extinction. Seek a clan that wants you as a member and aligns with your goals.
-
do not publish. Which also takes out the job loss threat of AI
-
do the absolute minimum to support the fiat printer masters
-
study from the failures of political movements and activists. There are no sides. The lessons are universal.
-
participate and teach others to participate in the parallel economy
-
do not offer help to those who love their fiat money printer masters
Sit back and enjoy the show. All this tech is not written and maintained by retarts. Taking white people out of the equation, the tech maintenance collapse comes sooner.
Calling the python orgs DEI “anti-white” or related to anything else you mentioned honestly seems delusional. As in if you are experiencing real issues in your life I worry that this fantastical thinking maybe hindering your ability to address the real causes.

this is an example of poor leadership. This leadership needs replacing. They’ve proved it with this announcement.
PSF current leadership are proving they are religious zealots as the water recedes from previous orthodoxy. So to should they be replaced.
In the end, however, the PSF simply can’t agree to a statement that we won’t operate any programs that “advance or promote” diversity, equity, and inclusion, as it would be a betrayal of our mission and our community.
Good on the PSF.
Perhaps I should up my donation…
The most distressing part of this is the way the NSF, the funder here, just gave into the administrations illegal takeover if their programs. The NSF was created by Congress and isn’t even within the regular agency structure of the executive branch. Buncha Quislings
The executive has the last say whether funds are released to be spent.
Congress can authorize funds. Doesn’t mean they can authorize and spend infinitely without checks and balances.
Great! You have a spare 1.5M lying around next to the priests edicts and talking points you had to parrot to keep your job during the previous administration?
