As I've gotten more experience as an engineer I shifted pretty heavily toward _opinionated_ designs, systems, and procedures.

A strongly opinionated system is more often a delight to work with—or if I can't work with it to know that ahead of time—than something that tries to make it so that it fits everything

Going first into #ActivityPub and now more into #JsonLD I am reminded why.

It turns out that just as "not to decide is to decide," it's also true that "a lack of opinions is an opinion."

I think we can criticize underdeveloped and impractical standards without resorting to logical contradiction.
