Does it matter? It was an interesting read full of neat debugging war stories.

#24Yawn. And oh, please stop using the war metaphor. You are bringing in way too much aggression into something that can be done with a lot more calm and composure. No wonder the tech community is constantly stressed out from hearing the war stories from jerks like this one.

Agree with you on that part. However, this specific article wasn't aggressive at all.

#28In case Rachel's reading this: I've missed her posts. I'm getting out of the troubleshooting part of the industry because it sucks (or rather, it's not where I want to put my energy anymore), but her stuff has always been a real treat to read and a reminder that no matter what's in front of me, someone's probably got a much tougher problem in front of them.

#29Can someone give me some context? Who is rachelbythebay? I gather she is probably someone well known for her writing on software, tech culture, etc in the HN community, but I am not that immersed in the community(hence my ignorance). Thanks!
If you think someone is a bit of a local celebrity on HN, you can click the domain name on a story like this and see what their blog was submitted for. Usually useful information.
Oh, wow, I never knew this. Thanks for the tip!
