You can be intuitively against something, but not be able to work out why. A few hours later, you often realize the rational reasons behind your original feeling.
- prunebeads 14y agoIndeed, but what if you don't? I'm not saying that intuition is bad. I'm saying that intuition is bad when trying to make a reasonable point.
- SquareWheel 14y agoI'd agree with that, good insight. Though I did make one (hopefully reasonable) point that it fuzzes the lines between code and explanation of that code, which I don't care for. The article also gives a valid reason that tools are not expecting this and won't correctly accommodate (though that could be considered a short-term problem).
- mercurial 14y agoSure. I read it as "there is something wrong with it, but I can't pinpoint what", which is fair enough in my book. It's not like this is the lynchpin of the article.
- prunebeads 14y agoIt's noise in disguise to me: filler to make it look like he has more arguments than he really has.
