Semantic word games aren't a crowd-winning form of argument.
- godelski 2y agoIt's worse when you play that semantic game to make your point stronger (changing your original meaning) and willfully misinterpreting the other person. Everyone loves being willfully misinterpreted
- astrange 2y agoI don't think the concept of encapsulation in programming is a semantic word game. Any part of a program can become a black box if you decide it is one (if you can figure out an interface anyway…), and that's good because it means you can swap it out.
