- apacheCamel 7y agoI feel like there is a lot to be said about this. It could be that a large portion of the tech sector is living up to the stereotypical "arrogant/egotistical/know-it-all" label that we get hit with quite often.
- fourthark 7y agoAlso an illusion that technical problems are black-and-white, when of course there is a social component which must be balanced with technical accuracy.
- mumblemumble 7y agoI think this is a big part of it. At least some of the questions I see unnecessarily closed, it seems that the complaint is that the community disagrees with the business constraints being imposed on the problem, and would rather close the question than help someone to find a solution that meets their constraints. It almost seems like "closed as duplicate" needs to be split into "closed: duplicate," and "closed: you should just quit your job instead of solving this problem."
- jmngomes 7y agoCould it be that the problem is just a lot more visible on those specific sites, because they have a lot more users than any of the others? https://stackexchange.com/sites?view=list#traffic https://stackexchange.com/sites?view=list#traffic
