You're way offtopic, but hey, since you're linking to an anti-civility
piece, I'll link to a roundup and a couple of pro-civility pieces.

https://lwn.net/Articles/559061/ "On kernel mailing list behavior"

"You don't have to be a jerk to code review"

To get back on-topic: this list is not LKML, and people don't get to be
abusive jerks. You will be moderated if you flame people and you don't
cool down when asked to. We welcome frank speech, including criticism
of each other's work, but not insults directed at people. If that does
not suit you, there are a zillion other lists out there for you to rant on.

When I start ranting you can "teach" me.
