Would it be so hard to start with an assumption that the person you're responding to is working with outdated information or that they're just confused?
Even if they were intentionally lying (why??) it would hurt no one to humor it and be polite, and it would do a lot towards making this a more enjoyable place to read.
Your post was informative, too bad it made me just want to close this tab.

Yes. > Even if they were intentionally lying Never wrote anyone lied intentionally. > it would hurt no one to humor it and be polite, and it would do a lot towards making this a more enjoyable places to read. I'm a programmer used to relay information in least words possible, so I just refer to factual observation. Whether I used word "lie" or had I masked it in a wall of text to spare feelings of flowers - meaning is the same. I consider all people my peers so I don't do to them what I don't want done to me - saying pretty words to hide the meaning. > Your post was informative, too bad it made me just want to close this tab. But you had to type what you have before you closed it. I mean, you're calling me out for being impolite by being impolite. I get the whole hypocrisy move and SJW reflex, but my stance is that IT and developers need to relay truth to one another in form of information, not prettify the stuff so people's feelings don't get hurt. Your feelings got hurt? You didn't get coronavirus because of my text, you'll be ok. Take care :)
