tomoyaman: there are two kinds of people in this world. ā€œIt is in the otherā€™s interest to argue.ā€ and those who think ā€œArguing is an attack on the other side.ā€ and those who think. Hell when the two intersect. (Miscellaneous dichotomies)

nishio: Both of these are the same in that they care about the interests of the ā€œotherā€ person. If there is room for improvement in the opinions published in the world, the improvement should be published for the sake of the world.

  • elf: yeah right

  • I feel that this is not understood unless there is a certain understanding of the culture of open source and its community activities, for example, and that there are many more people who have this kind of misunderstanding (who try to judge either interest or attack), and basically, there are so many things that these people donā€™t understand. I think.

nishio: When you see a technical article written incorrectly, and you point out that it is incorrect, it is not ā€œto attack the writerā€ or ā€œto give the writer knowledge There are people who think that it is a good thing for the world that incorrect information is corrected. I think there are a rather large number of them.

  • koizuka: yeah yeah, I act like ā€œif thereā€™s a problem with people reading it being taken off their feet, I want to fix itā€, but I donā€™t really attack the person who wrote it or anything. People make mistakes, you know.

  • drken1215: even though I know this, when someone points out an error, my first reflex is to try to see the other personā€™s good or bad intentions ā€¦ Usually, right after that, I can see that the other person has neither good nor bad intentions. ā€¦

  • keno_ss: I guess itā€™s more about road maintenance than trail maintenanceā€¦ I think itā€™s more about road maintenance rather than trail maintenanceā€¦like pulling over pebbles when you find them so that cars and bicycles can drive comfortably.

nishio: people who assume that making a reference is ā€œcommunication to a human beingā€ are asking this type of reference, ā€œIs it an attack? Is it goodwill?ā€ but this is false dichotomy.

  • tomoyaman: ah, this is certainly assuming ā€œa place that is not observed by othersā€.

  • nishio: I see, I was imagining a public place, so on the other hand, I was thinking ā€œeven if someone sends me a DM after I make such a reference, Iā€™m not really interested in that person per se, so I was thinking ā€œI donā€™t necessarily want to communicate with themā€ or something like that.

  • tomoyaman: My stance is almost the same as Nishioā€™s when it is a public place, but I still think it is context dependent, for example, if I get a response from someone else with the same content I think it is difficult for me to react when I receive a response from another person with the same content. I can respond because it is Nishio-san, but at least for me, the other person (context) is a factor that cannot be ignored.

  • Self-conscious bug that thinks itā€™s an air rip.
