No, being opinionated by itself isn't a good enough reason to belong in new code.
- neilalexander 7y agoIf you don't believe that making clear promises and delivering on them is, then what would you suggest is a better reason?
- randomvectors 7y agoYou're arguing with a point that I'm not making at all.
- neilalexander 7y agoWhat is your point then? You're being obtuse.

- neilalexander 7y agoI didn't say they were. They weren't even in the same sentence in my original comment.
- simiones 7y agoIf the promises you are making are not appealing, even if they are clear and you deliver on them, you can't count that as a reason to use a language in new code.
