   I have a coworker that placed a "return true" at the beginning of a failing test, and when I reverted the change spent ONE ENTIRE MONTH arguing that I had broken the test and it was now my responsibility to fix it. Several emails

    Sigh… there's more than one scifi writer. You've read ONE out of HUNDREDS! Wow you're so cultured and intellectual! > He didn’t write about drug addicted Mars settlers like PKD. Read the first stories on mars colonization,

    > That is the operating definition of free speech that has worked in America since I started working in this space. It hasn't worked. But you're too set in "USA IS PERFECT!" mindset to objectively think about it.
