With great power comes great responsibility
Adam and Jerod are joined by JS Party panelist Nick Nisi and #causeascene advocate Kim Crayton for a deep discussion on ethics in the technology industry at-large and our roles as software developers. If you’ve never heard Kim describe what life is like online for underrepresented and marginalized folks, you have to listen to this show!

@adamstac you said you don’t participate in some social networks for certain reasons. If you’d still like to try it, I think you will be very welcome on https://fosstodon.org.
You were also discussing the burden of someone just putting their code out there, to start thinking about a community even before there is a community. While listening to that, I realised that all those software forges, Github/Gitlab.com/Savannah/Sourcehut, each server instance should ideally represent a community for collaborating on code. So, by choosing where to put your code, you would be choosing the community in which it will be collaborated on. I know of at least one sub-community which tries to do something similar within Github.
