nope, you're saying people aren't allowed to even have an opinion unless they pass your own criteria beforehand.
sorry, that isn't how most people operate. It would be a lot more constructive to tell them why their opinion is wrong, instead of telling them they aren't allowed to even have the opinion in the first place.
- whateveracct 7y agoI never said that. My issue was with shouting uninformed opinions in a thread about a blog post by someone who actually has the experience to have such informed opinions. Sometimes you gotta stop spouting answers and start asking questions.
- holtalanm 7y ago-> I never said that. Yes, you did. -> When you don't have the prerequisites, the best thing to do is to be quiet and/or learn rather than pollute the comments with your unfounded value judgements. reads as 'Shut up, your opinion doesn't matter'. I'm done here. If you want to be rude and aggressive to people and turn them off to the concept of functional programming entirely, then that's on you, I suppose.
- whateveracct 7y agoIf you don't know Haskell, your opinion of if Haskell code 1) has a good name or 2) has an understandable implementation doesn't matter much to me, _especially_ on a blog post meant for proficient Haskellers such as this one. In general, people can be better served lurking or asking questions or making qualified statements instead of blasting their opinion like this: > The function name means nothing, and the implementation is hard to follow.
