It’s like someone stealing your wallet, then digging into it, removing precisely $1, then putting it back. T-t-the fact that they only took a dollar isn’t the point!:-P And if they can - and will - do that then what will they graduate to doing later, when they aren’t just playing around and decide that they want more?
Some people just do not want to see the larger picture, and may punch you in the face if you try to explain it to them, citing how “pretentious”/“condescending” you are being, or like you are “bragging”. If they do not want to learn… do not want to “know” things well then, most often it seems they do not want YOU to know things either:-(.
But just because we’re nerds don’t mean we’re wrong. :-)
I would argue that the fact we are nerds means we will more often than not be right, but be unable to say it in an ego soothing way to the gorillas in suits that actually hold the budget decisions.
Just because we’re old don’t mean we’re wrong.

My friends roflcopter’d and said ‘it’s only a popup’
Now look the fuck where we are now…
