Anyhow, what I meant to say was that a "click-bait" only deceives the ones who (actively) expect the "promise" the bait "gives": in this case, a supposedly dramatic outcome. Moreover they don't seem very aware about the diference between conotative and denotative meaning. Tabloids live by these people. :)

Out of curiosity, what was you expecting? Without knowing the thoughts Arik was having or the feelings he felt, I think it's unfair to assume that it didn't actually save his life. Unless you expected a javaScript bullet proof vest or something else that would physically save a life?
I expected to read about how programming saved his life. Considering the title states that programming saved his life, I don't think that's such an exaggerated expectation. I was not expecting the article to end without any mention what so ever of the life saving promised in the title.

Okay that's fair enough if you need it to be literally typed out to receive that message. I read the whole thing too and my assumption was that he felt his life had been saved when something happened that allowed him to take a completely different life path. As an example, My life was saved when my son was born, although strangely enough I wasn't in life threatening danger either.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
I kinda expected the old unit to get wiped out or something.
Okay well unfortunately for you that didn't happen. I was asking Shy Shalom anyway.
Of course you were. The "programming" part of the title was not what got you into. :)
Hey David, I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
It was a reply to Matt's. See the thread indentation. ;)
Damn. That was silly of me lol

Very well said. That last sentence pretty much sums it all up, aha
