I too cried like that at first.

You’re really throwing out every dishonest rhetorical tactic in the book. Reading this exchange is disgusting.

To be fair, there are a lot of “XYZ” problems on Stack Overflow where someone’s missing the point with the problem they’re trying to solve.

“I need my script to delete my file, but I can’t figure out the pathing so I delete random files until the correct one is gone. However, it’s slow – how do I speed my script up when deleting random files?”

But then you’d be missing out on the greats, like Party Cannon

Yeah, lemmy.ml has a kinda of special place in the fediverse. Tolerance of intolerance is how civility dies, no wonder people are eager to space away from that instance.
