This goes for inter-developer communication too. Be nice to one another. Someone just wants to help sometimes.
Don't worry: I intend to NEVER be that guy. I don't even USE the word 'literally' except ironically, so I think I'm safe.
I've literally never used the word "literally" unironically in my life

I just watched this, it was a very good video, experienced a lot of the same things he did/does, thx. Was really interesting learning about the history of some these "alienated loner with god-complex" that was cultivated in early tech. Also good stuff about how the purpose for a given space shapes the discussion and interactions.
A lot of us understand the problem: that silicon-valley, in pursuit of profits and engagement, has wrecked peoples brains with traumatizing ragebait for years, and how stressful it makes all of our lives. We have to do everything we can to make these spaces the opposite: enjoyable, fun, and at the same time not addictive.
