It's an ego thing to want to work with someone just like you instead of adapting yourself to others. It's basically bro culture. It's kind of what's wrong with technology culture.

Give me someone who is talented who makes great code so I can be home at 4:30pm and I don't care what their personality is like. Additionally someone who tells me when something is an issue even at my ego's expense is extremely valuable, over back patters and schmoozers who just want to keep everyone happy. That leads to a terrible product. I would not like to see whatever product you're working on is like.

You all should take a long look at yourselves and ask why you have to work with people who are just like you instead of being adaptive to other walks of life, personality, and backgrounds. Try getting out of yourselves for a minute. You might even learn something now outside of your own tiny tiny worlds!

That’s a pretty unfortunate interpretation of my comment, and not entirely logically consistent either.

I mean, if one person who rejects bro culture only wants to collaborate with other people who also reject bro culture, does that mean they are now proponents of bro culture?

I also find it frankly a bit weird for you to make grand sweeping assumptions about who some strangers on an Internet forum choose to associate and collaborate with. How do you know people here don’t work with people from other backgrounds?

I found your interpretation of my original 'snide' comment pretty unfortunate.

And not a single thing you just said makes any logical sense.

I do know I would never want to work on any project that you're in charge of because I guarantee they're nightmare environments.

Best of luck to you nonetheless.
