# Pure Incompetence

純粋な無能さ\
純粋な至らなさ

> So it's early Monday morning (well - early for me, I'm not really a morning person), and I'd love to have some good excuse for why I didn't do the 6.14 release yesterday on my regular Sunday afternoon release schedule.
>
> I'd like to say that some important last-minute thing came up and delayed things.
>
> But no. It's just **pure incompetence**.
>
> Because absolutely nothing last-minute happened yesterday, and I was just clearing up some unrelated things in order to be ready for the merge window. And in the process just entirely forgot to actually ever cut the release. D'oh.\
> So yes, a little delayed for no good reason at all, and obviously that means that the merge window has opened. No rest for the wicked (or the incompetent).\

「無能」という言葉は強すぎる、対訳としては「至らなさ」が雰囲気として近い\
ただ、無能っていう言葉の単刀直入さ、言い訳がましく無さが、どういうわけかなんか好き\
あるドメインにおける「無能」さという言葉をポジティブに使っていきたい。\
人間存在として無能だと断定するのは良くない言い方だけど

> 自分が無能に感じられるコミュニティに片足を突っ込んでいると、却って調子が良い

2. 研究者コミュニティ、HCI
