Line 77:
::: We disagree, and that's fine - I have never deleted or interfered with your code, and I'm sure we can converge on an agreement that you don't continue to delete or interfere with mine, which is optimised for a different set of goals, and constructed and commented in a different way.
::: It must be difficult, and perhaps unexpected, to have Nigel and I reflecting back to you that your behaviour constitutes harassment and bullying, and I'm sure you would wish to avoid any repetitions.
::: A first step to helping yourself avoid this kind of behaviour might simply be to allow yourself the luxury of having an opinion, rather depersonalising your pronouncements and
::: There is no need to replace a braver and more honest statement like 'I disagree with your summary' with a detached and unsupported olympian claim like 'your summary is misleading'.
::: Similarly, allow yourself to notice that your detached and impersonal expression 'hence the deletions' really means "so '''I''' deleted '''your''' work" – a real interaction between two real people.
::: If you can move away from depersonalising yourself, you will be in less danger of depersonalising others, and slipping back into unwitting bullying and harassment.
::: Give yourself a break. Allow yourself to have an opinion. There's no need to represent it as dissociated impersonal fact,
::: and there's no need to feel frightened
::: Nature is large and each human mind is a tiny candle. None of us really understands very much at all, and that's fine. As long as we cooperate, we can build cities, and sometimes even find our way to happy times and beautiful places.
::: I'll compose code from pure functions, and annotate in a way that facilitates insight and Rosetta comparison, and you can write the kind of code that you prefer, and that has the qualities which you prefer to pursue.▼

▲::: In the meanwhile I'll compose code from pure functions, and annotate in a way that facilitates insight and Rosetta comparison, and you can write the kind of code that you prefer, and that has the qualities which you prefer to pursue.
::: Others can benefit from both, and judge for themselves what to emulate or avoid. That's their choice – not ours.
