    > your implication that South Korea may be a special case Well, I genuinely think the word "feminism" means different thing in Korea to the places I've lived at. It has much more i…

    People are knee-jerking at “anti-feminism” part of Lee which I admit would look pretty off-putting to anyone who is not familiar with what’s going in South Korea. “Feminism” in Kor…

    Sure it adds complexity, but isn't that what abstractions are for? We are talking about grokking how data flows in _a web app in Rails_. I wouldn't think usual workflow requires go…
