I think it is probably more like, forgetting that you were once a child / adolescent; not to mention Generation Gap (e.g. Age of Browser Wars and Expensive CPUs).
Oh true, that probably is affecting the platform too.
If it's not a serious disease, like a brain tumor or hemorrhage; but doctors can make wrong diagnoses too. (Can't experts fail?)
They can, they do, and they will make the wrong diagnosis, and that is ok. But always with respect, no need to show that they are better.
Also, what do expect? Kindness? Doctors have too many patients to attend to, and humanitarian works are not as same as kindness.
Every human interaction should (but, of course, it does not) have some level of kindness, empathy, or respect for the other person.
I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
"Every human interaction should (but, of course, it does not) have some level of kindness, empathy, and respect for the other person."
Just to say I really admire this statement. This is such a great outlook. Now if we can just find a way to make this bit ~(but, of course, it does not)~ haha!
I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I'd be more inclined to agree if you changed the and for an or. There are people who are incapable of empathy, but it wouldn't be right to want to exclude them from all interactions, for example. As long as they can be respectful, it's all good.
Good point, yes, I think the most important part for me is respecting each other. I've changed it in the comment and will take that into account in the future.

Hehe thanks! I really stand by that and try to implement it on myself.
