    In your universe nobody wins. Nothing is true, nothing is false. Consider yourself the ultimate loser.

    What's wrong with absolutist statements? Nothing. I made an absolutist statement which is definitely true. You failed to prove it wrong. Instead you had to do the pathetic move of …

    I am from the camp that FP code produces much less tech debt then other forms of programming. But the problem here is that no one here can prove or disprove what I just said. And t…

    >No, that's not the definition³. It is, I just worded it differently. See the "cognitive biases" part on your citation. They use "reality" in place of what I mean by "unaware". If …

    Yeah I get it. But What I'm saying is that there are many times when nobody can truly prove which whether they're in the cargo cult or the other people are in the cargo cult. So pr…

    Nope. You aren't listening to me. I am getting exactly what he's saying. What I am saying is that the cargo culters could be right. You don't know. Nobody knows. Additionally he DI…

    Sure. I simply use this "world" example because everyone here is in the same cult as me: "The world is round cult." When I use it, they get it. If I were speaking to a different cu…

    You did argue for everything is the same. Basically by "same" I mean everything is "equally good" depending on context. The whole hammers are for hammering and screwdrivers are for…

    It is rude, but it is reasonable. When a child acts unruly and immature he must be disciplined with a forceful hand. I called you out harshly and the harshness was fucking deserved…

    This is the problem. You didn't even read my argument. Go read it again, carefully, instead of skimming through it. My point is: Maybe one of these religions is right. Maybe someth…

    This opinion is also biased. We have no theoretical method for determining which design philosophy is better than the other. We can't know whether the OOP religion is better, we al…
