You were insulting people, based on their jobs.
And now you're attacking mseebach. In truth you don't sound very repentant.
- ajross 15y agoSo my crime is the use of a mild (and very common) ad hominem in a context where I would expect most people would see the humor, not being uncivil? And it's OK to call things "crap" just so long as I don't make an ad hominem argument in doing so? Sorry, your argument is steaming crap. The idea that one can't invoke the pervasive metaphor of bad IT-generated code (or, I guess, imply that the local soap industry might do it) but that it's OK to flame away at the author who does is just dumb. And for the record: I don't believe I expressed any repentence. :)
