This comment/thread made me curious, and I’m sharing this here in case others are as well.

Apparently it was this Tweet that started the controversy, which is actually related to the CoC itself as well: https://twitter.com/_sagesharp_/status/1042769399596437504?s...




Thanks. I knew of Tso of course through his impressive work on the RNG and was vaguely aware of some scandal involving him. Under the CoC as I understand it personal attacks are forbidden and surely dredging up something from 2011 out-of-context counts as that.

Oh, and my use of "sharp" in my original comment was obv unintentional, how funny
