adult bullying is super common everywhere

I think there are some smaller / mid-size companies where the culture isn't dysfunctional and people behave like adults. but yeah if you work somewhere like that you're fortunate

With his dotcom millions ESR should hire someone to filter all the dumb poo poo he says and blogs. "that's dumb, that's racist, that's homophobic, that's truther, truther again, that's dumb, that's 10000 words of fanfic threesomes involving yourself, wayne lapierre, charlton heston and a double gauge shotgun with a larp dragon dildo attachment, that's an american history x reenactment" etc etc. It's clear this guy doesn't know the damage he does to himself by being so open.

at a reputable company you would be spoken to about the importance of being civil and maintaining a professional, courteous workplace

those kinds of places suck though. i really like being able to be a grouchy rear end in a top hat and have it reinforce everyone's perception of me as a hacker genius for some reason

really the only problem is TBI emulates that behavior but i just yell at him when i catch him being an rear end in a top hat so problem solved

sometimes someone in my company will do something dumb and I write an email telling them what a stupid loving moron they are and get a boner that I'm the alpha nerd and then I delete that email and write that they should consider this issue and a better approach would be this and that and they agree or argue or whatever but we get along and the code gets better and not worse.

it's okay to be an rear end in a top hat only if it is necessary.

don't be a needless rear end in a top hat.

the alternative is fawning over some milquetoast twitter personality lecturing linus on how to tone down his language to the point where terrible commits are rewarded with an 'every participant gets an award' approach. instead of keeping people vigilant of code smells, you're instead wanting to make the linux community a safe space filled with puppies, play doh and poo poo code.

yes its definitely either sucking linus's dick or this. no one can be anywhere between those extremes

linus appears to occasionallly be an rear end in a top hat, though it is not known whether he is an unnecessary rear end in a top hat.

that is the current state of things so let's not be distracted from the true problem, the feminazilluminati plot to hook men in their siren's web of bear-traps.

it requires self-restraint and the ability to understand that what other people think of you actually matters

some people think you can just go off on a rage-fueled tirade and then people will applaud you for all those knowledge-bombs and sick burns you dropped? if you're autistic or self-absorbed enough, you can mistake their fear or hatred of you for respect for your manly alphaness or some poo poo like that

that's the whole problem here. when presented with a bigot misogynist rear end in a top hat like esr, they claim that what he says isn't important because he's a bad coder instead of saying that he's a piece of poo poo and that kind of speech is unacceptable in the community, no matter what his skills are.

no, they've very clearly stated that he's a lovely human being, the fact that he's a talentless self-aggrandizing hack is just icing on the cake

tbf, this was clearly ironic fakeposting and using "females" instead of "women" is consistent with giving any kind of credence to the idea of spermjacking
