I meant your original post. You went out of your way to either gaslight or mock others who were sharing their troubles. Why?
Edit: I see you've edited your comment to answer my question. Well, all I can say is that's an interesting choice from someone whose bill rate is so high.
- tptacek 4y agoThis is a deeply weird thread, but, I mean, I keep saying these threads are weird, so what do I expect? I'll keep going just to illustrate my point. I don't doubt anyone who says they're having problems with Pinboard. Stop paying for it. Get your money back. It's a product, not a religion. Read the thread, though, and notice how many people are confused about that. You just asked me, a Pinboard customer, to go fix Pinboard for people having problems with it. Uh, no? I'm a user, not a parishioner.
- couchand 4y agoI apologize if my replies seem weird. I'm genuinely confused because I've seen you be such a thoughtful and empathetic internet person. I'm not asking you to fix it for them (That'd be crazy!) But if you're going to engage, perhaps you could engage beyond "wfm mic drop"? I'm not saying you need to get involved at all. But you chose to!
- tptacek 4y agoAs one of many people on HN with the day-to-day responsibility of monitoring and troubleshooting a complicated Internet thingy that springs leaks and throws rods at inconvenient times, I am here to inform you that "works for me" is often a pretty valuable piece of information. Now that our good intentions are worked out, it's probably silly for us to keep going with this thread. Somebody on another thread just said "Boiler Room is an incredible movie" and I need all my energy for that thread now.
