Well, being an introvert dork, I'm not the one to lecture others on how to effectively correct others, but, reading this:
> I was talking about infrastructure, and specifically the wobbly mess of shitty "we're gonna run Flask everywhere and call it microservices" that somehow let people accomplish things over the Internet. Absolutely amazing.
If this is how she talks at work, it's unsurprising that people would find the attitude abrasive. (And if this is not how she talks at work, then maybe she could tone down on dramatization a bit? Well, I mean, sure, it's her personal blog so she can say whatever she wants, but still ...)
- yjftsjthsd-h 6y agoI assume part of the point of the personal blog is to let loose in a way that she wouldn't at work, yeah. I certainly would understand that; I've supported stacks that I didn't like because that's what the business used and being a professional (IMO) means supporting what the company uses even if you hate the product, when on the clock.
- rachelbythebay 6y agoYou’re part of the problem if you get hung up on my choice of words this way. You might think about that and really ponder why you decided to do that. Hint: don’t tell me to smile more, either.
- yongjik 6y agoI'm not sure if it's just your style or you perceive my comment as an extension of workplace sexism, but in case it's the latter - if I saw a male engineer ranting about (ex-)coworkers publicly like that, I'd still have thought "Wow this guy sounds like a rockstar."
- nomdep 6y agoJust pattern matching and self-fulfilled expectations at work
- andrewflnr 6y agoFor a personal blog this is really quite tame. I'm guessing her CoC text is closer to how she talks at work.
