Ability to work and communicate with abrasive people is a valuable skill as well. I get to practice it here on HN sometimes.

I try to ignore the tone and insults and reply as if nothing was happening. Easier to do through text than through voice or in person. It's smart to move any discussion to a written medium in order to reply calmly and create a paper trail.
