GitHub Founder Resigns Following Harassment Investigation

An anonymous reader writes "Late Yesterday, GitHub concluded its investigation regarding sexual harassment within its work force, and although it found no evidence of 'legal wrongdoing,' Tom Preston-Werner, one of its founding members implicated in the investigation resigned. In its statement, GitHub vows to implement 'a number of new HR and employee-led initiatives as well as training opportunities to make sure employee concerns and conflicts are taken seriously and dealt with appropriately.' Julie Ann Horvath, the former GitHub employee whose public resignation last month inspired the sexual harassment investigation, found the company's findings to be gratuitous and just plain wrong."

    What part of ex is hard to understand?

    The fact that it could have been written just "x" and still be pronounced the same. The extra "e" at the beginning is not only baffling, but outright infuriating!

    Last time I drove past her house, she was taking it three different ways on her lawn in broad daylight, while giving another 2 guys the old "Franz Klammer".

    It would be easy to conclude from this anecdotal evidence that she is a filthy, insatiable cum-guzzling slut.

    Does Slashdot ever delete these kind of posts?

    Odd, I was thinking it was a reason not to hire men.
