"Being nice is the new punk"

I would say helping others is incredibly punk. Such as responding to chat messages requesting help in some particular coding problem. So many people will direct them to a support queue, but I love taking time to understand their issue and help them out.

I direct my coworkers to the documentation that I wrote and that they clearly never read, despite my providing it to them repeatedly in the past and despite my anticipating their exact questions/issues in it.

What is interesting about that is the an aspect of original punkers was a desire for respect as individuals. The come as you are was very welcoming. The repulsionist look I saw as an attempt to see only inner beauty in humans.

Punk was the reaction of the individual vs. the global machine. The global machine’s surface is nice but the machine is not kind.
