Astrid: The things you say can be heard by someone else a different way.

John: If you think about what you need out of your household or codebase as being your preference, it allows you to work with people who have other preferences more easily.

Jamey: There’s always somebody that is going to care about something.

Jessica: Spreading enthusiasm without judging people who aren’t enthusiastic about the same things as you are.

Heidi: Being able to discuss the emotional needs of having your own needs and space while having to compromise both in code and life.
