- ebbv 14y agoYes but totally irrelevant to my point.
- emiliobumachar 14y agoThen I'm afraid I may have misunderstood you. I enumerated those subjectivities because they make room for "interpretation or argument", and there is a kind of "randomness" involved. Even between "Your code either performs the desired function in the desired way or it does not", there's the classic case where it does what someone asked for, but not what they meant (bad elicitation). If that's really irrelevant, please do explain your point a bit further.
