You really should come to netdev conferences so that you understand
goals and efforts, instead of living in your cave.

I completely agree with Eric.

Cong we have a very serious problem with you exactly because you make
quite vicious emotional statements targetted at other developers

"quite vicious" is overstatement here.

merely when they say something you disagree with.

What emotional? Pointing out Eris's words from 4 years ago is NOT
emotional, it is just a help.

Not really.  Your "facepalm" didn't seem to be written as
humor but more as an expression of your exasperation.

Saying "Facepalm" is emotional and has nothing to do with the
technical issues.

Many words are emotional or conflictual.

Saying "stupid" is emotional and also has no technical content.

Stupid is used here all the time.  Happily, it's generally used
as a reference to self and not about others.

However it is still occasionally and unfortunately used when
referencing proposed code or other person's behaviors.

Thankfully, these types of words are being used less and less
in discussions here.

I agree with David and Eric that it's generally better to avoid
these word choices.
