Your link shows I didn’t bring the incident up previously. Your link shows the user thristian did. I added a link to Miller’s critique of Solaris performance and Miller’s wikipedia page.
I do think it’s fitting (rather than ironic) people would bring your first incident of bullying behaviour up in light of your second, but I’ve replied about that further down the thread.
- smcl 4y agoAlso the original commenter added another comment saying that they actually enjoyed bcantrill's "have you even kissed a girl" remark: "On the other hand, even as a Linux advocate I found bcantrill's post freakin' hilarious. There are very few times when the universe gives you a perfect opportunity for a snappy retort, so I can't blame him for seizing the moment. While it's probably not bcantrill's favourite memory, I think that moment deserves to be remembered and respected for its comedic value, if nothing else." To me it sounds like he did a quick google search "bcantrill nailer site:ycombinator.com" (note: it's the top result), didn't pay too much attention to the context and guessed that you all just had a grudge and were being mean. Except he's missed that it was more nuanced and respectful than that.
