Stop the for humans meme. Try-hards use it to signal that they're "in" but its outlived any meaning beyond some meta-meaning which is no meaning at all. Just make your project quality. Don't proclaim it, just do it.

The fact of the matter is, you're still talking about buying a rock. Once you have accepted the absurdity of that, it seems like bikeshedding to argue that diamonds are better or worse than anything else (or any less absurd). Despite t

You're right, I could have tried harder to express my disagreement without resorting to "newspeak" or "memespeak". Duly noted with apologies to the commenter and for lowering the discourse.
