| Feb 1, 2013 at 5:10 | comment | added | user165568 | Effectively, you've drawn a distinction between: "Don't know the answer to that question" "Don't know that there is an answer to that question" "Don't think there is an answer to that question" "Don't think that question can be answered except by discussion" I don't accept that distinction. It takes no account of the way people actually work. Is it because I am a sys-admin? I expect users to make judgements based on simple heuristics, which sometimes lead them to error. | |
| Feb 1, 2013 at 4:42 | comment | added | user165568 | So I give some specific examples, and you respond to the general question instead...OK, I've made a specific suggestion, and you've responded that CORRECTING THE ERRORS is better than my systematic suggestion for preventing the errors. In general, I disagree with that. As a sys admin, I disagree with that. | |
