That mistake is mine indeed, I'll remember. Thanks, and I hope "no harm meant" was implicit :)

Ad hominen then an apology, mixed signals here or I'm missing something. Maybe sarcasm?
You can express annoyance at someone's pattern of behavior without it being personal. embedding-shape isn't the only person annoyed by pjmlp's repeated disdain and snark towards people who use C (or Zig or WebAssembly or Rust or...).
No, you're usually the initiator. Usually it's with some off-hand quip about how C programmers don't understand C, or how the people designing WebAssembly are ignorant of COM or the JVM, or how Zig is just Modula-2, etc.
Most threads you participate in aren't filled with snark until you enter them.
I think many of us throughout the years been reading pjmlp's comments which fits a certain "theme". I don't mind though, it's just text after all, but was hard to keep myself from entering the meta-conversation when the opportunity just sat there. I still don't mean no harm by it, we all have our less agreeable ways of writing our comments, I'm surely guilty of it in some way too.
