Is this sarcasm? The article pretty clearly judges in an extremely opinionated way.

It's a shame it never actually stated the specification of the program. It seems like that would be the kind of thing you would need to know to form a fair opinion.



It's not sarcasm. I really interpreted the article this way. Might not be the correct interpretation.


You got it right.

Perhaps a better way to put it would be to say that the article teaches by demonstration instead of teaching by assertion.


But, it's a fictional story. I can make up a fictional story to demonstrate anything, regardless if it's true in the real world.
