This comment was disingenuous, and you should tell the truth. You say further on the thread that you work at the company you work at because it allows you to work on free software, even though you could work elsewhere. This would prevent you from participating in 99% of software engineering labor market in NYC, and your experience is not in anyway indicative of the market as a whole.

- yowlingcat 7y agoYeah, I'm familiar with the guidelines. What makes this a personal attack? The person I was responding to very much derailed a conversation with a disagreement that wasn't really in good faith. Is it a personal attack to point out when someone is an orthodox ideological fundamentalist trying to inflict their views on others? Should you just flag and move on and not respond and follow the maxim "don't feed the trolls" ?
