Good point, but some communities seem more civil than others. I went from theoretical computer science to development and there was a noticeable drop in civility. Of course the theoretical computer science community is tiny when compared to software development.
I'm loving the great supportive comments in this thread however.
- dan00 14y agoThe difficulty of a subject acts as a filter. For mastering a hard subject you need to be able to control your impulses, which might also cause a more civil behaviour. I don't think that it's accidentally, that the Haskell community is the most civil community I have been part of. Just being part of it makes myself a nicer and more civil person.
