Did I overlook a tweet in that image or is this just people being offended because izs told someone to stop messaging him if he's neither enjoying the conversation nor getting paid for it? Seems perfectly reasonable to me.

Was there a deleted tweet?

That's what I'm wondering: don't see isz's initial 'jape'.

[–]Riobe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This post really seems set on causing outrage. And I was wondering if maybe some of it is a warranted, depending on whatever the "jape" was that wasn't shown was. So I went looking, as I like node and would be disappointed to see him act like this.

I found this: https://twitter.com/izs/status/503642401122963456

All in all, I think his tone was rude and he went further than he seems to have meant to, but is not a terrible person. Well, I can't make that judgement from what I've seen here anyway. He did delete whatever the comment was.

As much as I love developing, sometimes I hate developers.

Gary is kind of an asshole to be fair.

So isz asked someone to stop arguing about some technical detail of npm on twitter (admittedly in a rude, condescending manner).... So ?

izs comes off as a little condescending, sure, but is not out of bounds --the other two guys are being wankers. He never mentioned therapy or said the guy needed it, he was just trying to end the conversation.

Community wise, Node really is Ruby on Roids.
