I've noticed that you seem to be quite arrogant. Usually it is
a result of ignorance. Your statement basically proves that.
Maybe you should take a break from programming for a while and
work on your attitude?
While you have no proof of this, If you do a little soul
searching you'll find that the world doesn't revolve around
you. Put down your toys and get out of the sandbox and you
might learn something!
Dude you are kind of being a jerk. He's just arguing against,
rather passionately, a design decision he thinks is poor. It
values no one if individuals remain quiet and conform.
Certainly not the leadership. What you see as arrogance is
really just passion.
Passion or not,
"If you are wondering why I'm inflammatory, here you go. You are
pulling me the old prove a negative trick. You have good evidence
that DIP25 is good design ? Good, because I have none. And that's
my proof. As long as I have no evidence that DIP25 is good, DIP25
is bad."
That statement shows a lot of arrogance.
It he not really just saying "I have no clue if X is true, but
since I don't know, I'll just assume it's false and assume you
are wrong.".
That's not very logical. Why wouldn't he just as well assume X is
true?
The fact is, he can't and shouldn't make such statements about X
if he has no "evidence" about it.
Instead, wouldn't the proper approach be to discuss, learn, and
share what one things in a positive way so everyone can learn
about X and reach a more intelligent understanding of it?
Hilter was very passionate too, are you saying he was right?
