HN is not good with discussing these kind of articles. Far too many armchair experts. At least with the programming articles you get the occasional comment from someone who really knows something. Here its just a lot of noise.
Instead of any sort of useful statement about the article, what's this? A thinly-veiled appeal to authority, simultaneously claiming that I am the weak link in this thread? Yes please...
I don't understand your point. Is there a rule against discussing the discussion? Its not appealing to any authority or claiming anything of the sort you describe - you are putting words in my mouth...
