Yeah, maybe there's more context I'm missing but the screenshotted comments don't seem particularly "insulting", and the blog post announcing that they're implementing the idea does credit Casey (just not by name).
I'd summarize this more as "Microsoft employees initially disagree with dev's idea, but eventually admit he was right."
- gjm11 5y agoI think "does credit Casey (just not by name)" is an oxymoron. You aren't crediting someone unless you actually, y'know, give them the credit.
- Ajedi32 5y agoMaybe, but my point is that "takes credit for their idea" is inaccurate. The post clearly says the idea came from "a community member"; not that they came up with it themselves.
- ergocoder 5y agoThat is even worse. They know who the person is but is so vengeful that they don't name the person. Microsoft should be embarrassed that they have engineers like this. I couldn't imagine how bad they would treat colleagues with inferior authority.
