"Considered Harmful" considered harmful

3 pointsby tomgrunerabout 11 years ago
The phrase &quot;Considered Harmful&quot; is considered harmful due to its overuse and failure to actually identify the issue. By adding meaningless link bait to titles, it detracts from actual discussion. &quot;Considered Harmful&quot; is nothing more than a cliche and thus needs to be considered harmful.<p>If nothing else, all other titles should now at least include &quot;Considered Unharmful&quot; so that discerning developers will know its ok, and everything is going to be alright.

It did make me chuckle, I admit, but the joke is old enough to buy its own beer.<p>See also: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Considered_harmful#References" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Considered_harmful#References</a>
