Perhaps if you are a developer. If you are anyone else, the comments can be pretty toxic. The amount of "managers are useless", "phds are useless", "designers are useless", and so on that I see here is extremely off putting. For some careers, like academia/phd, there are almost monthly slam fests with tons of toxic comments about how developers are so much smarter and better.

That's quite the mischaracterization. Some of us happen to have research background and know very well how the phd daily grind goes. It's due to our personal experience and first-hand accounts of the whole academia/phd life and hardship that we do have and present negative opinion on the whole industry. Just because opinions don't cast academia in a good light it doesn't mean they aren't accurate accounts of what academia life actually is.
