Probably not but thought I'd ask. Maybe anyone know anyone going to the East Coast Game Conference? I'll be going on April 18 and 19. Will probably be staying in Raleigh for those few days (and Friday). --- |

Interesting conference. Won't be going, though, have some pretty major obligations during that time. I would probably really enjoy the talk from the guy on AI. -- |

Lawl. Their code of conduct explicitly states that it even applies outside of the convention (to any of your lives) if it Quote: has the potential to adversely affect the safety and well-being of community members. Well, I guess I'm already pre-banned. Quote: 500 S. Salisbury St. Raleigh, NC 27601 That's cool though. It's nice to have large events that aren't solely based in freakin' LA, or New York. Fun Fact: ARCHER is made in the great state of Georgia. -----sig: |

I think that codes of conduct are going to ruin society. We're human, not machines. If you want to stay safe and can't protect yourself then travel with friends. It's not fucking rocket science. On the other hand, if somebody is making you uncomfortable or offended you can walk away. It's a public event. It's not like you're in an alleyway alone. It's all just very much bullshit. The idea of a "code of conduct" applying OUTSIDE an event/organization is complete bullshit. A person's private life is just that. Private. Any relationships or interactions are also private. There are already laws for criminal offenses. We don't need special rules in place. -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

If I have a car by then, I'll drive; but otherwise, I'll have to take the Amtrak or Greyhound. Or maybe I could nag someone to take me. I only live 45 minutes from Raleigh. There's a few talks I want to see and his is one of them. --- |
