Right, that’s why I think that Twitter posts need higher scrutiny before landing on the main page =) From what I read of the Twitter “thread,” the original post went up and sat for a day or so, then someone else finally posted some references and the first guy retweeted them. Other HN posts have already said they don’t support the original tweet. Which seems to be the answer you were looking for. If the original tweet and the eventual references had all been rolled up into a digestible blog post, I would have been less likely to flag it—even though I don’t think HN is the right place for it. My take on the post has nothing to do with you personally. If you had made the same reply without mentioning that you were the OP, I would not have known and would have responded mostly the same way. Probably less charitably TBH, since I wouldn’t have seen your other comment.
