Agreed. Punishing people who make stupid comments seems like it causes resentment and anger and thus more stupid comments.

I wonder if there a parallel with the whole punishment vs rehabilitation aspect of the justice systems. In essence, a justice system is a social tool to cause people to act a certain way. Some techniques are better than others.

Yes you are, and you can choose to go down that path or not.

I prefer creating customized frameworks from libraries. I tend to know more about my particular problem than any generic framework writer.

Also, I can focus only on the solutions and features I need. I often don't have to build for the super general case, which often results in a simpler framework that helps rather than hinders.
