Hello there,
Recently we have seen many extremely long discussion threads here on
internals. While discussion is good, much of these threads are filled
with noise, pointless arguing that has little merit.
NikiC calls them pseudo-arguments, I call it a pantomime: Someone will
raise a point, someone will disagree, someone will agree with the first
person, someone else will disagree, and so on. A point gets raised, a
counter-point is made, and this is seemingly repeated ad nauseum. I am
guilty of participating in this, that is true, but I'm stopping now and
I hope you will too.
If there's a point that needs raising, raise it. If you have a
counter-point, make it. But please, let's avoid a "Oh yes it is!" "Oh no
it isn't!" pantomime here, and bring up issues once, not 20 times.
Further more, if all the points have been established, it might be worth
just making an RFC and voting on it.
Because no sane person could keep track of the Generators thread just
now with its ridiculous length.
Thank you.
