" @kirakira@furry.engineer @kasdeya the concept of “common sense” is absolutely a way to shift blame – it’s why it’s so prevalent in neglectful parents to suggest that things that they are tasked with teaching are instead some abstractly available form of knowledge which can be somehow acquired without teaching. presumably the person without the “common sense” should be gleaning this information through contextual clues via exposure to others. this assumption is ableist and, when employed by someone charged with the care of another, frequently blames victims of abuse which tend to be isolated from others (in particular, children).

@vivi ive wondered about this too. the only way it makes sense to me is in the same sense that almonds “consume” water – not that they permanently destroy water, but that they divert water away from other things in places where water is scarce. i have no idea if this is an issue with data centers but it’s the only way it makes sense to me with the way its presented
the fundamental theorem of software engineering eep: we can solve any problem by introducing an extra level of abstraction blanket
