From wikipedia: the Heartbleed bug was introduced into OpenSSL in 2012 and publicly disclosed in April 2014.
The Morris worm was released in 1988.
People are prone to make logical errors and to overlook stuff, even when they are aware of the risks. Thinking is hard, and every little bit of help is useful, either from peers or from tools.
Do not take what zeroname wrote as an insult. He simply pointed out the mistake you made (indeed, it does not follow what you wrote - it may be possible, and probable, but it does not follow automatically).
You can look at all this as a peer review, just not for code, but for thought/logic argumentation.
- yesenadam 8y ago"You're clearly not only unwilling to engage in logical reasoning, you also seem to lack basic reading comprehension." - that is not simply pointing out mistakes. That's ridiculous insults that have no place on HN. I didn't think zeroname came off better in that exchange at all, in terms of who was trying to communicate, not just appear superior. There was a crossed wire, and condescending lectures in basic logic mixed with insults did not help.
- delian66 8y agoThat is not an insult, it is just pointing out the observable facts. For a person, who seems offended by written words, do not you think, that "ridiculous" and "condescending" and "superior" are "problematic", lol ?
