I will not descend into an extremist philosophical debate to decide the validity of a plainly factually wrong comment. I hope that other readers will follow suit and am frankly insulted that you think that the readers of Hacker News are stupid enough to buy into such a plainly ignorant comment. Edit: Burgerbrain is correct, this comment was far too mean spirited. I will not change my comment because I believe editing robs context and rewrites history. I however continue to support the feeling that I had when writing this post, which is that I feel extremist philosophical debates are both off-topic and bring down the overall level of discussion on HN.
