Comment on Update on Elimination of Harmful Language Initiative in Stanford’s IT Communityparent

Comments

If your only objection is company making it policy, I'd suggest malicious compliance, ranging from 'whe/whim' (if appropriate) on the harmless side, through strange unicode characters, to some equivalent of Little Bobby Tables on the harmful. This is your chance to see if they actually pay any attention to what they've asked you to enter?

Yes, defo, to the shoes. (On the rare occasions I fly now I wear mocs specifically due to this, but lost a nice knife a decade ago because I'd forgotten I had it in my pocket) And you and I both know that booting the laptop proves nothing.

I spent my mental bandwidth on learning a new language (~2 years) and acclimating to the local culture (~5 years) in emigrating to a polity whose social and public policies more closely align with my notions of liberty (in particular, the state motto doesn't just go one way, like e pluribus unum, but also emphasises that the many conversely have their obligations towards the one) and good and openness.

Merry Christmas (or whatever you all celebrate) to you and our threadmate!
