Where can I find "Alpha" and "Sigma" males software developers on the Internet? I am looking for people that seek influence in the IT industry and want to fight against "wokeness." Now that the big techs can not hire as they used to, it is the best time to organize a competition.

@fredlinhares Nah, that’s just Alphas. Sigmas may care about their “influence in the IT industry” and fighting wokeness, or maybe not.One thing that defines them is not giving the slightest damn about the socio-sexual hierarchy; in this context that means they don’t give Alphas what Alphas think is their due, and Alpha hate them for that. Wrangling a group of Alphas does not sound like fun, and it could be even harder for Sigmas because what forged them makes them relatively immune to peer pressure.What exactly are you seeking to influence, and how? IT is varied, but generally not much fun in and of itself because its a low respect cost center. “Technology companies” like the Goolag … overwhelming pozzed. Suppliers of software systems and tools? FOSS?? A non-pozzed FOSS effort, even if you don’t mandate the +NIGGER license policy?So note you’re asking people to give up their careers in IT working for pozzed companies, and technology companies in general. See Eric Raymond’s fate in FOSS, see today’s civil war between Mastodon and Pleroma users, just using the latter is enough to get you and your site canceled by some, and Soapbox is right out I think.Would also ask how your cunning plan fits in with things like the RESTRICT Act, and what I call samizdata as we very possibly get squeezed off the public Internet.

@satanasur I am currently working on a game engine; if it becomes good enough that I can release games and profit from them, I will become influential in the industry. It is a long-term project, by the way. But, of course, my influence will be proportional to how much money I make with this project.And you, are you planning something, are you working on something?

Sorry I'm a soydev mostly working on the backend side. Not very familiar with gamedev. Though, what's wrong with engines like Godot. I was of the impression game engines will be a pretty ideology nuetral technology unlike webdev.

@ThatWouldBeTelling Everyone needs social interactions, even Sigmas. And Sigmas do care about losing their freedom.You can go far if you know how to be diplomatic. For example, this is the code of conduct of my engine: https://bitbucket.org/fredlinhares/candygear/src/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.markdownAnd next month, I will be speaking at a conference that has this code of conduct: https://rubykaigi.org/2023/policies/

@satanasur I'm not particularly eager to work with ad-hoc programming languages like Godot script. Also, the game industry is becoming too political, so I am afraid that intolerant zealotry may arrive at game engines too.

@ThatWouldBeTelling I plan to become influential in the Ruby community and have good reasons for that. The two most influential people in the community are Yukihiro Matsumoto and David Heinemeier Hansson. Matsumoto is a center-left Mormon; he rejected a more radical code of conduct for his language and used something reasonable. David Heinemeier is a radical leftist but is fair enough to accept people from different political views. The most influential Ruby developer in Brazil is Fabio Akita, a libertarian. So we have reasonable people at the top of the community.The language is slowly losing popularity, so they must accept people who help improve it and make it popular again. And also, because the language is losing popularity, it is easier to become influential in the community.And if people are afraid of ruining their career in the tech industry, they can use pseudonymous and rely on a few people like me who are willing to show their faces.
