This person's style is a great sorting machine. If you don't like it, you're not going to get along with them.
I like it very much. I would probably hire this person.

Sounds like a low-EQ environment. I'm perfect, every issue is someone else's.
Yea, this guy sounds pleasant. Would love to work with him.
But seriously, I don't understand how people can appreciate this level of toxicity.
It’s a very different style of work where politeness, ego, and professionalism weren’t factors. The only focus was the tech and ensuring it was moving as efficiently as possible. You could really push things in whatever direction you needed as long as you had the metrics to show it was better.
I disagree that it’s inherently rude or aggressive. You can absolutely tell someone they’re a moron in a very polite and joking way, but it clearly won’t translate into writing very well.
As for crass, yeah definitely ¯\ _(ツ)_/¯
You guys realize this person wrote a blog post about not being able to find a job, right?
"This toxic personality is so refreshing? But why can't he find a job?"
What a mystery.
Understand what? This guy is contributing to horrible environments, not just a victim.
Why are do so many tech people have such low agency?
