| I dislike meta posts generally, but I'll give it a go so maybe you learn. > Now I'm getting downvoted again. Oh hn, you crack me up. Because you were whining about down votes. Generally, when I see someone whining about voting, I'll vote down without a second thought, regardless of the content of the post. Why? From the guidelines: "Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading." I know a good number of other people react this way as well. Instead of whining about getting voted up or down, instead, use this as an opportunity to improve your messaging. > I'll happily take the negative karma, cause I know it brings some awareness. Up-voted comments bring more awareness. If you truly cared about bringing awareness to something, you'd want to communicate effectively, and effective communication is critical in our field. Anyways, I generally hate meta comments like this one, but hopefully you have a better understanding of why people are most likely down voting this comment. |
That said, my intention wasn't to whine. I truly don't care about the act of getting downvoted.
What I was trying to point out is that I was getting downvoted in my original post, because "kids these days" are against the general concept of TDD. That's in response to this OP's comment that I quoted.
Why were they against TDD? One person said it was because their CTO made them do 100% test coverage and that caused the startup to fail. Is that the failure of TDD or the failure of the CTO? ;-)
Now you're getting downvoted? LOL! For the record, I upvoted you.
