Bad News: Engaging kragen in plain conversation was my error. Had I known he would prove a jackass (e.g., here he using "cancel culture" methods to smear my statements on this thread by suggesting readers pause to read all my past posts on HN!) I would have never posted on this thread. But as his own internet posting history shows, he seems quick to anger and, while quite well-schooled in some respects, he is unable to recognize that there's something seriously inherently flawed in his thought processes. And before that flaw, whatever it is, can fully reveal itself, he goes off screaming "troll!". I'm not in bad company, apparently kragen also said some very bad things about Eric Naggum, although kragen raged after Naggum died (wish he'd done the same for me, but...) And the comparison is unfair in that I'm neither so talented nor so demanding as Naggum was. And I love a good laugh. Good News: this is the first such person I've met on HN so I think such is a rarity.
