He’s talking about people who wrote the code. Those are actual people. You’ve abstracted them away as “Microsoft” and decided they don’t deserve any empathy.

- gaanbal 11mo agoa lot of "actual people" are also suffering from dunning kruger and just love to build stupid shit that nobody wants in horrific ways.
- otabdeveloper4 11mo ago> You’ve abstracted them away as “Microsoft” No, they did this when they joined Microsoft, not me. You don't get to be "an actual person" when you're paid by Microsoft to write Microsoft code for a Microsoft product.
- testdelacc1 11mo agoYou’re talking about Microsoft like they’re ISIS or al-Qaeda. You sound unhinged. If you ask people “do Microsoft employees deserve to be treated as human beings”, 99.999999% of them will answer “yes of course”. People like you terrify me.
- otabdeveloper4 11mo ago> If you ask people “do Microsoft employees deserve to be treated as human beings” No, I'm asking if Microsoft emploee code gets to be judged as a work of a person instead of a corporation, and the answer is a resounding NO. Nobody cares what Microserfs do in their personal life. (I'm sure they're great people, some of my closest relatives were Microserfs too.)
