Could you explain that please? Why does it seem arrogant?

I almost stopped myself from posting it over such concerns, but I wasn't about to let all those minutes go to waste without sharing a joke to some. It was really just meant for Twitter banter. I was just screwing around bored in transit while reading about all log4j substitution types.

  I'm glad you took the time to shit on the three unpaid volunteers who keep software used all over the world. I hope it makes you feel big and clever.

    Your attitude is how this log4j issue made it into production and stayed there for so long.

    This attitude is so peculiar and pernicious. As far as I can tell it's basically: when someone does something we find bad or wrong the only appropriate reaction is gratitude for their hard work and effort. Any other reaction could lead to them feeling bad. That's bullshit. People make mistakes. People do malicious things under the guise of making a mistake and then hide behind this weirdly passive attitude.

  For what it's worth, I didn't get this impression at all, I interpreted it as very amusing light-hearted humour

  I don't understand the first commenter. Seems like just plain old fun. I love it.

  I didn’t get a sense of arrogance at all. It feels like a gentle poking with love!

  Those thinking Brad Fitzpatrick is arrogant to open source should look into Brad Fitzpatrick’s contribution to open source.

It’s important to keep a sense of humor and humility about working with logic machines from our squishy salt water meat brains. There are only two kinds of programmers in this world. Those who don’t make anything, and those who create sev 10 global security nightmares.
