You can express annoyance at someone's pattern of behavior without it being personal. embedding-shape isn't the only person annoyed by pjmlp's repeated disdain and snark towards people who use C (or Zig or WebAssembly or Rust or...).
- gchamonlive 2mo agoI didn't see snark prior to being provoked, but this seems like a discussion with history beyond this scope so I think I'd better sit this out
- pjmlp 2mo agoUsually I reply in the same tone as I get talked with, I have no qualms with touchy feeling culture of modern times.
- gchamonlive 2mo agoThat explains the escalations
- throwlifeaway 2mo ago> Usually I reply in the same tone as I get talked with No, you're usually the initiator. Usually it's with some off-hand quip about how C programmers don't understand C, or how the people designing WebAssembly are ignorant of COM or the JVM, or how Zig is just Modula-2, etc. Most threads you participate in aren't filled with snark until you enter them.
