Maybe this is a reaction towards the people who often do this?
After all, we have seen both kinds in our workplaces and they sometimes have certain attributes?
- sq_ 7y agoIn all seriousness, what attributes are you talking about? Pushing hard for certain software/tech/orgs that they like?
- weego 7y ago'Obnoxious zealots' is probably a more common perception of these people
- indalo 7y agowhat a weird thing to get hung up about
- yakshaving_jgt 7y agoAt face value, yes, but the obnoxious zealotry often has further implications. I mean, how much of the technology baked into your average web project these days is chosen out of fashion rather than utility? Definitely too much.
- mkohlmyr 7y agoAlmost all of it.
- yoz-y 7y agoAt work a lot of people have stickers on their laptops (myself included, but I don't put them on my personal one). I've never _ever_ had anybody preach to me about some tech/event/company that they put a sticker of. My laptop is mine and I don't give a damn about what others think about it. I assume that this is the case of the vast majority of people who put stickers there. This whole conversation reminds me of people complaining about vegans preaching.
- panpanna 7y agoPeople who want to give the perception of being different?
- coldtea 7y agoQuite young, impressionable, early adopters/zealots, with the fashion sense to match the stickers?
