I went to a rural Canadian school, thank you very much! Please don’t run away tho, you went through all the work to set up your lil’ soapbox and everything. Let’s chat.
Here’s why your earlier comment is (in my humble opinion) very silly. You used a bad comparison. And I’m not just talking about the bringing up Hitler bit.
First off, nobody needs to learn that. That’s an inherited skill. Secondly, it’s bad in the context of the post. Learning how using AI is wrong is an objectively positive thing, but your example is someone learning negative things. It’s bass ackwards, as the kids used to say ('twas me).
What would you prefer the dev do? You can’t change the past, so what actions should he have taken to align with your obviously superior moral code? Self flagellation? Volunteer for a drawing-and-quartering position?
You can keep up your current act if you want. Attack anyone and everyone who even tries to better themselves. Pat yourself on the back while you’re at it, but I don’t jive with the punishment-only model of reformation. If this guy realized he was doing something wrong and changed his ways then I think that’s a good thing. Leaning should be encouraged, not punished.
P.S. immediately bringing up Hitler as a comparison is silly, and makes you look silly. Try to not do that, and also try to use comparisons more grounded in reality.
