Another one could be : "Don't attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by ignorance from your part"

I've been bitten quite a few time making hasty harsh judgements because I was missing a piece of the puzzle



>> "Don't attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by ignorance from your part

+1 for this. Techy types are too quick to judge others as "idiots". And yet, the same type of people will get very outraged when others or their boss does the same to them


> Techy types are too quick to judge others as "idiots".

I wouldn't say too quick, probably just quick. Have you thought about that why that is ?

My running theory is that because people and skills in the tech industry have historically been discredited, they have developed a distaste for people who can't "deal with this computer shit".
