# Code of Conduct
The **SAME Analog Modular Ecosystem** is a metrology-grade engineering project.
We exist to build precise, open, and mathematically verifiable hardware
architectures.
We prioritize technical truth, physical accuracy, and engineering excellence
above consensus-seeking or politeness. This Code of Conduct outlines the
boundaries of participation in this repository.
## 1. Technical Debate & The Standard of Rigor
We encourage fierce, direct, and uncompromising technical debate.
* **Thick Skin Required:** If your proposed circuit topology has a flaw, if
your math is wrong, or if your code breaks an assertion metrology check,
expect to be told so directly, bluntly, and without sugarcoating.
* **Critique the Engineering, Not the Person:** Vigorous critique of designs,
mathematics, schematics, and Typst code is standard operating procedure.
Calling a flawed technical design "terrible" or "broken" is valid technical
feedback. Personal insults, ad hominem attacks, and identity-based
disparagement are not.
* **Meritocracy of Evidence:** Arguments are settled by physics, mathematical
proof, datasheets, and compiled assertions — not by reputation, authority, or
emotional appeal.
## 2. Hard Boundaries (Zero Tolerance)
While technical debate can be rough, the following two boundaries are absolute.
Violation of either will result in immediate moderation action.
### A. Strictly No Off-Topic Discussion
This repository is exclusively for the engineering, metrology, software tooling,
and specification of the SAME Analog Modular Ecosystem.
* **Keep it strictly about SAME:** Discussions regarding national politics,
culture wars, social commentary, or unrelated tech drama are **strictly
prohibited**.
* **Zero Warning Cleanup:** Any pull request, issue, or discussion thread that
strays into non-SAME topics will be locked and deleted immediately without
debate.
### B. No Discrimination or Hate Speech
Discrimination, bigotry, and targeted harassment will not be tolerated under any
circumstances.
* **Zero Tolerance:** Hate speech, slur usage, or discrimination based on race,
ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or
nationality is strictly banned.
* **Immediate Action:** Attacks on an individual's personal identity (as opposed
to their technical work) will result in an immediate and permanent ban from
the organization.
### C. A Non-Negotiable Copyleft Identity
The SAME project is fundamentally built on strong copyleft principles to
guarantee open access, repairability, and technological sovereignty forever.
* **The Licenses are Settled:** The project's [licensing model](LICENSE.md) is
non-negotiable.
* **No Re-licensing Debates:** Issues, pull requests, or forum threads
questioning the copyleft identity, arguing for permissive licenses (MIT,
Apache, BSD, etc.), or re-opening licensing debates will be closed immediately
without discussion.
## 3. Scope & Enforcement
This Code of Conduct applies to all spaces managed by the SAME project (git
repository, issue trackers, pull requests, and official communication channels).
Project maintainers reserve the right to:
1. Instantly delete off-topic or non-engineering discussions.
2. Permanently ban participants who violate the anti-discrimination policy.
3. Reject contributions that rely on unverified claims rather than physical or
mathematical proof.
If you observe a violation of the hard boundaries (hate speech or harassment),
report it directly to [Denis Chevalier](mailto:perso@denischevalier.fr).
