Im übrigen bin ich dafür, statt "Messi" "Verwendungsoffen" zu benutzen. Oder statt "Technologieoffenheit" "technologisches Messi-Syndrom", habe mich noch nicht entschieden.
@Perpetualmaniac actually, if you see this, you should question the code immediately. Nullability and raw pointers is something you usually want to avoid.
@allowind It could be both! I can also imagine that "just-world" thinking could be at play here. "There is justice in the world, and my side is the just one -> we must prevail". This can get mixed with the lack of actual control (which is sadly the case there).
@allowind Yes, something like that. If you consider conspiracy theories as a way to cope with increasing complexity of the world, then this is another, optimistic, but none less toxic way to do that. The main idea that someone is in control is the same IMO. What do you think?
@shasya_g М-да, в embedded automotive за новостями бегать не надо, это плюс.
Вообще если не получается избегать, я пытаюсь практиковать избирательную слепоту, как с баннерами в раннем интернете. Но это не очень хорошо тренируется и потенциально вредно.

The beauty of magic in fantasy is that magic devices never have engineering issues. No "this part of the puzzle is from a different vendor, so you need to turn the second key only 176°", no "fireballs cannot be thrown at speeds >30m/s", no "we don't actually know how it works".
@KofmanMichael I might see a parallel with the June 1941 TASS note "no reasons to worry, this is fine", but that's mostly the voices in my head speaking.
