Who are you arguing with?
- Havoc 7y ago>Who are you arguing with? Who's arguing? It's top level comment on a hn submission. Occasionally people post their opinions. Who am I arguing with? I didn't realize us vs them mindset is compulsory here.
- ulkesh 7y agoMaybe you should re-read the comment. It reads as if you’re angry about something with little to no context as to what point you’re trying to make. Whatever works for you, I suppose.
- dajohnson89 7y agoI sensed no anger in the comment, and it was a fairly well-made point. relax.
- ben509 7y agoI suspect it was read as an argument because you wrote a few opinions in the form of a response, e.g. "And no I'm not using a OS where..."
- joombaga 7y ago> And no I'm not using a OS where just typing the OS name is dependent on keyboard layout. WTF is wrong with you people? Thats insane. No That seems like a negative response to an implied suggestion. Taken together, and considering your tone, I think it's fair to call the suggestion and your response an argument, and it's understandable that one would question with whom you are arguing.
