there's a guy who has more than 850'000 and nobody talked about him

Lines of code doesn't tell much about it

The guy had made a statement about it

i know there's more than writing code to programming, but the time consuming part is writing, debugging and all that stuff

He said, that code was mostly auto-generated by algorithms

i didn't know that

but even if it was 90% generated he has still typed 80'000 lines of code more than her (assuming that she wrote all of her contributions)

the team that designed the program that put the image together doesn't seem to care about how much of the code they personally wrote in the final product

so if they don't care, I'm not going to waste effort on it either... it was a group project and they should all receive equal recognition for it

He made this tweet

I'm just upset about all the actual astrophysicists, astronomers, and scientists that put years of effort into this and are now forgotten in a campaign of misinformation

they are trying to shape public perception and its working and unforgivable to me

^this

this kind of achievement should have been genderless and nameless... it belongs to everyone

I know for a fact thats how those involved feel, because I've been speaking with them about it locally

You spoke to them directly?

it is super cool they accepted the Hawaiian name submission though

I live near one of the observatories involved in the effort

yesterday I specifically went to one of the astronomy professors to talk about it

can you give us some more details? it sounds very interesting

on the name?

no, more like stuff he/they said and how he/they felt

well I didn't get a whole lot because it seemed like everyone was a little weirded out by how everything is blowing up in the media

they just seemed sad it was becoming such a political issue

and they just wanted it to be about science

oh yea

it would have been so much better if articles gave like a list of contributors, maybe some statements from the most important ones and just talked about the discovery for the remaining part

Hi all

Heya Drew

Hey man how are you ?

I'm good, got a lot of sorting out I'd been meaning to do for ages done, threw out some old stuff

You?

Thoroughly surprised the trashy mods haven't nuked this one yet...
