Great stuff. I find it really funny that a big feature of modern API’s is that applications place barriers instead of being handled by the driver, and we all tried it for a while and then threw up our hands and decided to write graph systems to automatically place them because it was too hard.

Man it sounds like you’ve had a rough go. I’m sorry that’s been your experience.

Ya fair enough. I’d put my “razor” at behaviour that targets vulnerable / minorities, which is probably broader / vaguer than just slurs, but it’s going to be a spectrum of opinions and preferences

This.

I ask my boss about project-wide stuff that might impact me and my team, discuss strategy / priorities / roadmaps, ask them to weigh in on anything where I need project leadership to help resolve an issue, and any perfunctory “goals” stuff (I hate it so much haha)

You’re right that it’s messy and imperfect and false positives can be really frustrating.

But the alternative - no efforts to maintain a safe space - is that vulnerable people are typically the target. Toxicity typically punches down.

I’ll happily trade some clunky inconvenience so that those people can safely participate
