That's not fact, please don't state it as such. That's your opinion on modern day vernacular influencing an unrelated field/topic.
Perhaps you didn't actually read what I wrote, but I said I'm aware of how good their content is/can be. My issue is that a blog of that caliber is using something in our modern vernacular that has been beat to death and adds no actual value.
It'd probably do you best to read what people write instead of putting words in their text or assuming things outside of the scope of what they said...
Isn't someone going by the handle "rubyn00bie" criticizing an article with "call me maybe" in the title as being juvenile something akin to the pot calling the kettle black?
You may criticizing the author of its choice of words. You may disagree on what I state or don't state. But calling out people that they should add value, while all you do is trashing them is a bit controversial and it has no place here.
On the actual critique: if you have had worked with eventually consistent database, a 'Call' record's presence is really a great pun on the 'call me maybe' phrase. I'm really sorry if you don't appreciate that part either.
