Negativity is inherently bad. There is a place for it, of course, but when it's off-topic it's especially unwelcome in my opinion. And programming language discussion already has far too much negativity.
- ahelwer 6y agoMany people find the "pozzy vibes only" philosophy much more annoying than relentless cynicism, which can at least be refuted by just ignoring it & building stuff.
- athrun 6y agoI don't know about that. I find relentless cynicism/negativity to be much more difficult to ignore than positive comments. I tend to think this is how we are wired as humans.
- loopz 6y agoI find both positivity and negativity annoying, bleh! ;) Joke aside, how about we all complain about your favourite language in every post? It over time becomes irrelevant to those who grok the language.
