That's a great comment - you couldn't make it up. It's the perfect illustration of the blog post.

> you wouldn't hire a 70 year old writer for your commercial project no matter how brilliant they are. And yet, practically all over the world, 70- to 80-year-old men are being hir…

That's just your bullshit. Reputation exists and words have meanings, regardless of your opinion on that.

It's how Internet was supposed to work. NAT was a forced mistake, as well as the whole concept of "public" and "internal" address spaces.

> NAT is good. It isn't. Routing is good though.

There's a thing called reputation. It has nothing to do with prejudice.

> I don’t think you are actually arguing with me. I'm not. I just know for a fact that statistics (and indexes) are lies.

I think almost every company would benefit from that.

You just nitpicked his words and made a big deal out of nothing, ignoring the actual message. Classic.

You should probably try replacing the name of the country in the phrase “ is not allowed” with your own nationality to understand what the problem is here. > You accuse them of bei…

I reread your original comment. It would have been better if you had included those small details that, for some reason, you left out. In my opinion, you simply failed to get your …

That's exactly what I did when I was writing code in a paper notebook around 1995. Mainly because I didn't have a computer at home, and I wanted to program more than anything else …

That's a weird thing to say. GUI slows down me A LOT when I sometimes have to switch to it from my terminal for whatever reason. Where did you get your "absolutely no one" data poi…

I’m not disputing how intuitive the GitHub interface is, but seriously, why is it so hard for technical professionals to set aside 10–20 minutes of their time to learn a new interf…

> “Ooh cyber” is a lame straw No, not really. To me it felt exactly the same (immature) way. That was a reason why I kept using htop instead. I feel the same about eg k9s, but ther…
