1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudo
in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Absolutely awful shit and I would be ashamed for decades if I acted like this to another person.
Really shows the worst of him here. It's rare that he becomes this toxic and humiliating.
To his credit he undertook sensitivity training and is a much, much, better communicator now.
He used to channel the whole juvenile angry-but-gifted programmer crap, accepted (eventually) the criticisms and did the right thing: changed.
I agree. In a leadership role it's one thing what you say to a person in front of others and a completely different thing what you say when alone with them....
To be fair, if he said what he wrote here in private, it'd still be extremely bad leadership.
Obviously he should correct them and point out why, but maybe not trash on them entierly.
Lmao he is often celebrated for his put downs
I think he's being fair and balanced. Also please stop calling mild irritation "toxicity", it only makes you sound like a whiney douchebag who cries whenever they're questioned about anything.
If this is not toxic, what is? Where do you draw the line? Would you call this email professional?
Fair and balanced in the same way as Fox News. :)
This was anything but "mild irritation". Makes me wonder what does a great irritation look like for you
Please don’t ever have kids.
I find this kinda insulting in an unnecessarily personal way. How is this comment not toxic in its own right? Kinda gross imo.
