This whole weird story got me thinking about Stacker News and whether it even has a code of conduct. I couldn’t find one on GitHub, but maybe I just fumbled it. Honestly, I’m not even sure it needs one. Like, I didn’t see anything for Bitcoin’s repo either. Personally, I don’t think a whole project should catch heat just because of one dev’s behavior (personal life), let’s not mix apples and oranges. What do y’all think about a code of conduct for Stacker News, hypothetically?

I think it’s an ongoing and informal community enforced thing.
We can reflect on what kinds of conduct seem to be rewarded and which tend to be punished.
It’s like interpreting an unwritten constitution based on precedent.

The rules are revealed when you violate one.

When I was younger, I found this idea so repellent but now I think it’s probably the way things have to work.
