Not a lot of room for uncharitable misinterpretation when one starts off with "I can only assume..."

It certainly would!
- dredmorbius 7y agoI probably should have mentioned that as well, yes. You had the choice to interpret charitably yourself, however ;-) https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- knolax 7y agoI'd like to interject for a moment and say that imho this entire subthread is off topic and weirdly passive-aggressive.
- dredmorbius 7y agoAlmost any time a nudge on HN culture goes past a single initial mention / response, it tends to get that way. Though the initial bit on the culture of charity (see link in my previous comment you're replying to) seems generally on point. Watching people talk past each other rubs me as tedious. I'll mention it occasionally.
