- fogetti 8y agoHe is not aggressive at all. Upset? Maybe. Aggressive? No.
- quotemstr 8y agoAs a meta point, the word "aggressive" has undergone significant scope creep in tech lately. It's worrisome that lots of people with influence have started to punish messages that, while polite, express explicit, forceful, and direct disagreement. The only remaining option is an indirect approach laden with false pleasantries and ambiguous language that leaves the reader confused about the actual state of agreement. We need to push back against false claims of aggressiveness.
- nindalf 8y agoReally? If I dismissed your comment with #ShitHackerNewsSays, you'd say that was a "forceful, direct disagreement"? Maybe you think this is great because "false" pleasantries are cut off, but for me that's aggressive.
