Hello Jason,

Might I suggest an even better rule? Do not attribute any characteristics to people whose motivations, skills, and working conditions you know absolutely nothing about.

You offhandedly managed to call all Qt Documentation Engineers stupid/lazy, when we in fact hated the adds and worked quite hard for a long time to have them turned off. That finally succeeded, and if you search for something now, you should not see any adds.

You are welcome,

Leena
