No, I didn’t mean to take it in an anti-intellectual direction, but the whole article is an ode to vaccination and the danger when everyone else has gotten the vaccine and you didn’t using folks that didn’t have the opportunity to be vaccinated and now live on a thread neglected by those who still should care. This isn’t an engineering article, it’s a warning. I’m not sure the put down response was warranted.

Those PDP-10ers really know how to piss off the VAXers. But as dang points out, this predictable, generic tangent is pointless now that the world has moved on to 64 bits.
