There's a time and a place for everything. I may not respond to you if you say, "Hey, hand me that fucking thing right there." instead of, "Hey, hand me that RS-232 cable." I simply don't have time or the give a crap to try and translate.
This is not an extreme example. It happens.
- matwood 10y agoTime and place is key. Swearing is just another tool to express an emotion. A bug report comes in and you find and fix it in 5 minutes, "Hey I fixed that bug, fix is going out." A different bug report comes in that you stay up 24 hours finding and fixing, "Motherfucker! I finally found and fixed that issue that was fucking with our payment system. Have I mentioned that programming is fucking horse shit? I'm going to sleep now."
