Why does someone have to bring up this eleven-year-old comment any time file synchronisation or Dropbox is mentioned?
Dropbox is now broken for certain Linux configurations and someone had a bit of fun writing a shell one-liner to replicate some of its functionality. Meanwhile, the original eleven year old comment was partly a throwaway remark that it didn't do anything he could not do already which means it wasn't interesting to him (plus two other points, but nobody links to it for those).
That's not even "not really the same", it's "and since you mentioned Dropbox, let's make fun of BrandonM some more". It comes across as just mean-spirited and shitty to me.
