This may be one of the biggest lies I've ever seen on the internet
- don_neufeld 3y agoThis whole post has a very hyperbolic feel to it that hurts whatever substance there might be to the argument.
- jjgreen 3y ago"Very hyperbolic" is itself on the hyperbolic side.

- yjftsjthsd-h 3y agoGiven that that felt like it was written a bit ironically, perhaps it would be better to say because programmers perceive themselves as hyper-rational and then proceed to make irrational decisions on that very basis.
