Along with other things said here, people tend to "forget" that there's a real person on the other end.
I vaguely recall Nicholas Christakis talking about a study they made, where they created a bot which would simply remind people of the fact that there's a real person on the other end, and they found that it would help. (That study was done in some university platform and is centuries old in internet time, though. I think he spoke about it about 6 years ago on podcast with Sam Harris.)

means sarcasm.
(I myself don't find this one funny though...)
I don't have experience with Twitter or Mastodon but it reminds me of time when I quit drinking.
When I quit drinking and tried to stay around people I used to drink with, I realized really fast how pointless this "engagement" (really just two people speaking past each other, and feeling like they have deep conversation) is. It's almost insulting what a waste of effort such an "engagement" can be.
...still... no idea...
This should go to YSK.
(With @kamen's explanation from this thread or something like that.)
Does no one else see that Musk is becoming a cliche´ bond villian?

I could describe myself in similar terms as you described yourself; basically a nerd who can also program my way out of a paper bag (and maybe a leather one).
To me the term "tech bro" always meant someone between Elon Musk and some low middle class douche-bag who feels smart and adult about "accepting" that AI needs to be everywhere and we also need to pay for SW every month. Someone person who would say "bUt iT's fOrD mOdEl T" and has some Alexa non-sense in their house.

Don't wanna state the obvious, but it looks like they still ended up staring at each other for the rest of the evening.
They have shown that they still love each other, so hope they can work with their one irreconcilable difference.
