the "alright guys" clap is a kind of status marker
it's kind of like the click/snap at the end of "lights camera action" – it's a bid, a gesture to say "alright let's go". it's a bid at leadership, in a micro/local/immediate sense
broadly I think you only do it if you're comfortable leading a conversation. not all leaders necessarily clap, but all of these claps are "ok i'ma take it from here", which is a confidence marker
fun to try and look for gifs with different phrases that have a similar energy
thinking about a very specific kind of one-clap. nice coincidence here that the guy doing the clap is also the boss of the whole team, tho I don't think it's so simple as "only the highest-status person can do it". anybody can do it if they think they can
this is several claps but it's kind of the same idea. attention please. order, order
you could think of the clap as punctuation
