Re:Why can an ad break the Windows 11 desktop and taskbar? by bodge5000 on Friday September 03, 2021 @12:08PM (#28406039)
Maybe that was a terrible example, although I could be wrong.

It kind of makes sense actually, of course I hear of more developers being hostile to other developers compared to say mechanics, but that could be because I hear from more developers full stop. There's probably a term for it and everything.

That being said, I'm sure I've come across a lot more camaraderie amongst other professions than developers. Anecdotally, I know theres been a few times I've complained about or seen people complain about a certain profession and seen a wave of posts come in from other workers defending them. Then again, its possible those just stick out in my mind more than the many times that presumably hasn't happened.

I think that you have this impression because you are comparing the inside of a professional environment with the outside of others. I'm pretty sure that in inner circles of other professions they speak trash of others, but you don't see it from the outside, just like a random Joe won't never read HN whrrry devs speak trash of other devs
