Thank you for this cultural translation. You saved me.

I checked the link, and it makes perfect sense. In my world (Japanese Banking), we are trained to "Read the Air" (Kuuki wo Yomu). Everything is high-context. Saying things too directly is considered rude or immature.

But I realize that here on HN, "Code" is the context. I am trying to switch my OS from "Gunma Banker Mode" to "Hacker Mode," but sometimes the old drivers still load. Thank you for understanding.
