Most of you are like those programmers, sheeps without common sense!

First, two comments:

1. No community is of a piece. Glancing over this and your previous posts, I can't help but notice that you have a very "you people" attitude. Most any community is heterogeneous. It might behoove you to consider that.

2. If your goal is to persuade "us people" that you are right, you need to work on your technique. Openly insulting your target for persuasion is exceedingly ill-advised. It almost guarantees that you will not be listened to.

That said, I might actually agree with you to an extent. But I can't help but want to distance myself from you a bit.

Please take this post in the constructive spirit in which it is intended.

Oh, and you might want to provide more detail and/or evidence regarding your Sun example. Without concrete details you might as well have started it out with "Once upon a time...".
