That is correct, it is ‘user6723’ who is talking about that and I was responding to that user. But nevertheless the blog appears to be by someone who doesn’t have much of a clue regarding the subject matter, the arguments are rather confused and nonsensical.

- tinus_hn 3y ago> Another hint If you quote only half of the sentence, it suddenly means something else! When used to attack it’s a variation of the venerable ‘straw man’ debate technique. Nice if Mr Siebenmann made insightful comments on a Usenet group about Unix but that doesn’t mean his comments about ARM computers are indisputable. How about you summarize the points in the blog post that you agree with?
- user6723 3y agoJust because someone posts on a mailing list and calls themselves a sys-admin doesn't mean they are one. What the author wrote objectively demonstrates a lack of essential skills and also a lack of temperament for what could be called a sys-admin, and therefore they are ultimately disqualified.
