Elon Musk fires an employee publicly for correcting him

[lonelyjak]

why do normies barge into a discussion with the sole intention to prove the other person wrong? Is this an ego thing, do they suffer from severe hormonal imbalance and can't control themselves or what?

I see this all the time in social media, people responding to someone starting with "Yeah... no", "This is incorrect", "You are actually wrong" following up with some smug "debunk" wall of text with the "actual truth", when it's likely they've been gigatriggered by something you said and they are trying to prove that they are right and you are wrong. Such a childish attitude.

in this case at least, its also because programmers are usually insufferable midwits with giga-egos
