Oh my god… I haven’t laughed this hard in a minute… lmfao 😝
A few weeks ago, X’s director of engineering, Haofei Wang, said the upcoming change is meant to protect users’ public image — because “many people feel discouraged” to like “edgy” content.
Oh my god, he’s trying to make it Reddit.
You’re… not wrong… 🤔
This coming from the guy literally picking fights in the conservative community over this…
Thanks for the insight. It’ll be something to keep in mind going forward.
The place I experienced this the worst was a job where I was in a leadership position, lol. (I have since come to the conclusion that I’m not the leader type)
I’m just really direct, and get told I need to consider how I say things… The only example coming to mind is something I don’t really want to talk about openly on Lemmy. I’ll give a vague represantation though
(My statements are verbatim, the replies are paraphrased)
I’ll say “You didn’t do XYZ.” - They say “But I have done X”
Next time I try “Have you done XYor Z?” - Then I hear “Why are you interrogating me?”
“What have you done?” - “Why are you being accusatory?”
Those are all plain and simple black and white questions. I have yet to figure out the code I was supposed to speak.
Those examples are from the same person, but I get this reaction from most people when I ask simple questions
Not 100% sure what you’re asking, but I think it’s about the flowery language and “code”?
Not when you’re speaking in code…
Well now you tell me… ;)
Neither. They expect us to figure out and speak in the flowery language and codes that they use, and get upset when we can’t, when I feel like it would be easier for them to just -listen- to what we’re saying, because it’s usually in black and white.
This post is my lived experience.
Oh my fucking god, this. Why are people like this?
“I have no idea what you’re talking about”
to
“Why are you mansplaining??” In 6 seconds…
The same ones who still pay for AOL
You’re getting downvoted, but I got a weird vibe from that comment, and your reply nailed exactly what it was.
Yeah, okay buddy. I suppose next you’re gonna tell me climate change is real, huh?
YYYY.MM.DD
Hyphens are overrated
