Re^3: Patience is a Monk Virtue

Disagree. Said why before. Short version: if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it. If an optically senior monk causes a disaster or cost overruns or whatever on some company contract, it reflects badly on all senior monks and Perl in general and not in some vague, existential numbering way but in an actual: "Wow, this is the best Perl has to offer? God, no wonder everyone hates it."

New reason: the anonymous hate posts are often embarrassingly stupid, adolescent, and illiterate. It's fruitless to respond to them. A clarification of context about their idiocy is valuable to show the whole house isn't built of sniping cowards.

The solution to pollution is dilution! I've said this before, too: I can't picture anyone taking away a sundial post as the solution to implement, when there are a dozen good posts with informative demos of good code. Just keep posting good answers and the problem will be solved, without drawing any more attention to the poseur. Cheers The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply]

If anyone posted ads for viagra, penny shares or perpectual motion machines, they are reaped. His posts are equally spurious, equally misleading, equally BS ads for his services, and should also be reaped.	[reply]

I agree, this could be the business model. Bad publicity is still publicity. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply]

You can find plenty of old commentaries in the web how nobody took the chances for Brexit or Trump for serious. What has changed is that fake news became contagious in new media ... Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply]
