I think the pointless argument here is the one you make.
Mostly free is not the same thing as free, and the scale of ‘carefulness’ is already completely arbitrary. How much more careful is 6 than 5?
You don’t have to argue about it, because the scale doesn’t represent anything. The only thing to say is, sure, we’ll set the carefulness to 6.
- yarekt 2y agoI agree with both of you, but consider that if this was a real meeting, you’ve both just wasted 10-15 minutes arguing about a line on the graph of a metaphor. (and yes I’ve seen this behaviour in meetings). I agree with the original comment, as professionals we can do better than simplified analogies (or at least we should strive to) Good insight, thanks for that
- hinkley 2y ago> you’ve both just wasted 10-15 minutes arguing about a line on the graph of a metaphor So goddamned many times. And multiply your 2-10 minute sidebar by the number of people in the room. You just spent over $200 on a wobble in a line. Plus you’ve usually lost the plot by that point.
