Whatever problems or limitations the existing approach had dropping everything on the floor is one of the least helpful ways of trying to fix it (assuming good intent).
- dkjaudyeqooe 2y agoYou have to assume competence too. You may have good intent but that doesn't help if you don't really know what you are doing or are blinded by ideology or some wayward belief.

- dkjaudyeqooe 2y agoI'm talking about the administration that dropped the boards, as per the post I was replying to.
- stouset 2y agoGot it, sorry that I misunderstood. I firmly agree.

- lazide 2y agoBurning everything to the ground is a way of demolishing something though. And if your intent is to just destroy it, it’s a far more effective one than bringing in experts to slowly try to disassemble the giant jenga tower without it falling over.
