It is ironic this is coming out of a company with an internal site dedicated to depreciating "Considered Harmful" because it is the epitome of grandstanding.
Here is some further reading on why we should downvote these types of things into oblivion: https://meyerweb.com/eric/comment/chech.html https://meyerweb.com/eric/comment/chech.html
- gowld 8y agoThat's a silly article. The essay says that we should disregard essays if they have a title like the essay's own, so... pradox. When "considered harmful" is considered flaimbait rhetoric, perhaps the problem is with the readers who refuse to engage with any mildly-worded criticism.
- donatj 8y agoIt’s surely in how the reader interprets it, but I always read “considered harmful” as quite mild but to the point. Something like “isn’t great”. A refreshing opposite of clickbait as the actual proposition is in the title.
