The fact that this is the second time PPK has trotted out this slide in a year - both times causing developers to claw the sky and write "be who you are" pieces about it - indicates he enjoys the ensuing hubbub.

That isn't the behaviour of a community member, imo. It's one thing when the community disagrees on technical issues (the Nolan talk about needing JS, for example) but another when someone goes out their way, twice, to point at people and call them phoneys.

Ironically, like many infuriating things in life coughtrump we might do better to completely ignore them and not validate them with blog posts.
