It's probably time to stop recommending Clean Code @ Things Of Interest (qntm.org)

Seeing that Uncle Bob is making a new version of Clean Code I decided to try and find this article about the original.

Telling you that you don't need to be sarcastic is not ad hominem.

Your response was to call my argument sarcasm. That is directed at me rather than what I said. That’s quite literally, not figuratively, the definition of sarcasm.

I wish you the best of luck. You don’t seem to be interested in the comments unless it agrees with you and you have yet to share a perfect resource. Have fun!

You're not owed a response. This is an internet forum, not a debate. If I don't want to engage with someone who is being sarcastic and condescending that's allowed. Especially so when your first reply to me was a straw man argument. I never claimed perfect advice exists. You're acting as if I would look at something 99% good and say it's a "mixed bag" of advice because it isn't 100% good. I don't know how to view that as something other than sarcasm. I don't know how to take saying things like how you're shocked people wouldn't know this as something other than condescension. All you've done is act hostile towards me. And for what, because I mildly disagreed with something you said and refused to take the bait and get in a flame war? Literally even now you close this comment with sarcasm.

Life is too short for this shit. If you wanted a real discussion maybe say "I didn't mean that sarcastically," instead of being condescending.
