And so it is -- very articulate, well stated, and needed. I hear that it
emerged from a BoF at one of the Ottawa Linux Symposiums, where various
rather horrid examples had been recounted of the sort of behaviour Ms.
Henson (the author) suggests in her very direct Scandinavian manner that
people should avoid if they want to live and do well.
That nothwithstanding the fact that speaking of "using KDevelop for a
project" being good for "impressing dates" is obviously harmless
railery, I would think.
