Must we use this 'liberal' vs. 'conservative' language for programming styles? The terms are already so ridiculously value-laden, you're at risk of letting your political leanings involuntarily bleed through and muddle up your programming decisions.

I think that's a reaction to there being a blog post about liberal and conservative programming languaged on the HN page a bit ago.

(And yes, we should absolutely not use them. )

2+2=5 for all liberal values of 4

2+2=null for all conservative values of math and science don't matter.
