It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
The pain reflex is a good way to learn pretty much anything. Tried and test for ~3 billion years.
Pretty sure head injuries can impair learning, provided you survive of course.
Here's the thing: falling off your bike is dangerous but not as dangerous as being hit by a car. A significant number of biking accidents are someone being drove over.
People will put on some shorts, a tanktop and some flip-flops, get on their bike, and ride similar speeds to that of someone on a motorbike wearing full safety gear. All while surrounded by vehicles which weigh tonnes and with the most likely surface their head will hit being the curb or some concrete. It's stupid.
I mean, seriously. Hit your self in the head with a brick or an iron bar. You're likely to hurt yourself badly even if you do it lightly, let alone full force.
People do that with full on superbikes lol
