> people whose job is to sling HTML or javascript

What was that? Coding HTML or programming in javascript might not be as mentally hard (most of the time), but is just as much work as anything else.



And where exactly did I say it wasn't work? I said that it might not have the same interruptions costs, and I said this as a way of acknowledging the people in this thread who say that they think open plan offices are great.

So, what you did, was, you cut out a few words, removing all context, and then pretended like there was no context, and put words in my mouth implying I denigrated a certain type of work.

In short, you told a lie.

Disagree with me if you like. In fact, the whole point of that addendum was to acknowledge that some will disagree with me.

But lying about what I said like that? In an attempt to pretend like I said something offensive so you can be offended?

Childish.


Wow. I think this conversation ends here.
