- WalterGR 15y agoYes, thanks, that's a good summary. Since the conversation from yesterday (with 137 comments) was voted pretty highly, I assumed that this submission was related, and the previous one would offer interesting additional discussion. I'm sorry if it was inappropriate to link to. By offering it, I was in no way advocating a particular point of view, even though I quoted the title of the HN submission, which does put forth a hypothesis. If it's appropriate to delete my comment, let me know.

- wmf 15y agoThat's just a summary of the blog post that this thread is about, and IMO it's inaccurate; to me Sinofsky's post seems to confirm everything Garrett wrote.
