I have often longed to have a countdown timer in a video conference to take the speaker off the stage, as well as for the audience vote en-mass and anonymously to do that or extend time.
Most projects these days have adopted a code of conduct that has protections against all sorts of discrimination, and has had something of a chilling effect on basic forms of humor - and I wish that more had a code of ethics attached, and even more that automated assistance existed to recognize various manipulation techniques. We found it necessary in this project to - Not so far as Roberts rules of order, we (Pete Heist) wrote: "With a scientific approach there is no need to argue over anything with stress, or to give others coronaries, as it were. There is no shame in being “wrong”, nor everlasting glory in being “right”, about anything, if one yields to well-gathered evidence. There’s just the scientific process. The bulldozer of science. We suggest this - and a good sense of humor! - as a part of any policy to avoid logical fallacies, and to at least admit or recognize them when we do. We don’t see too many logical fallacies from this crowd. What we see more often is that we sometimes lack the data to draw certain conclusions, because we don’t always have the time and resources to collect it. So we use our intuition when we have to (and there are some pretty darn good ones in this group), but we do have to be careful about what final conclusions we draw. Assertions and hypotheses for sake of discussion starters should be fine, and we shouldn’t be afraid to be wrong with those, lest we freeze before saying or trying anything. We will try to avoid Argumentum ad baculum, Proof by intimidation, Thought terminating cliche’s, Single cause fallacies, Regression fallacies, Proof by repeated Assertion, and Argument from authority." -- https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/ecn-sane/wiki/rules/ -- Oct 30: https://netdevconf.info/0x17/news/the-maestro-and-the-music-bof.html Dave Täht CSO, LibreQos _______________________________________________ Nnagain mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/nnagain
