    I don’t love that the headline as well as the first line of the article use the words “says” and “claims”.

    the jury ruled he was guilty. we’re so far past “allegedly” and all that garbage. he did it. she was drugged. she was raped. there is no reason to be inferring any amount of doubt anymore.

    the one that makes me irrationally angry is the used car dealership advertising. like the decals are annoying, but the license plate covers/border things that people don’t take off.

    like do you really want to be advertising chuck and donna’s used car emporium every time you drive your car?

    while I sorta doubt you did the “math on the physics”, my bigger worry is referring to .30-06 as 30.06, as one of those doesn’t exist, as far as I’m aware.

    but stating, factually, that there is “zero chance” of the bullet embedding in the collarbone, is pretty irresponsible. there are a multitude of other things that need to be accounted for in ballistics analysis, which even then can be misinterpreted.






  • I like the idea of documenting what I’m doing all that, but I have a hard time rationalizing what should actually be recorded.

    like if I’m debugging something, and I’m putting silly print statements to quickly troubleshoot, should I document that?

    there are certainly times where it makes sense to have a record, but there seems to be many more instances of not needing it at all, which then makes you see recording it as a silly formality, which then kills any motivation to continue recording.
