> The part of the quote you chopped off: And the part of your own quote that you chopped off: "To me there's a very big integrity difference between lying and applying for a role which you don't meet all the requirements." That's not a difference between exaggeration and lying, it's a difference between honesty and lying. Where exactly is the exaggeration? > I now realize reading through your comments that you're the kind of person that tries to vouch for flame bait and then complains about it. I've clearly wasted my time here. Heh. Are you referring to this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34849006 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34849006 The commenter posted a link: "see his rebuttal here: https://tessier-lavigne-lab.stanford.edu/news/false-allegations-stanford-daily https://tessier-lavigne-lab.stanford.edu/news/false-allegati..." I said: "I've vouched for this comment. Not sure why it was flagged. Regardless of whether you believe Tessier-Lavigne's denial, it's directly relevant to the story." The link was not flame bait, it was simply the accused person's response to the accusation. Now, in retrospect it does turn out to the case that the commenter has engaged in flamebait in other comments. I did not vouch for those other comments, nor was I even aware of them beforehand. I didn't look at the commenter's bio or other comments before I vouched for that one particular comment, which was simply a link, a very relevant link. Thus, your criticism of me is totally unwarranted and ridiculous. You're grasping at straws here. [EDIT:] I noticed that you've edited your comment to remove the part about vouching. Have a nice day to you too!
