Nowhere in those Wikipedia articles (or in anything else I’ve read on logical fallacies) is there any support for the idea that secondhand information is more valuable than firsthand information. I’m honestly curious why you think your opinions on childbirth are so valuable that they’re worth posting on Hacker News. Are you a researcher? An obstetrician? Because what it looks like to me is a JavaScript programmer who’s never written Rust giving their opinions on the borrow checker. I don’t deny them the right to have opinions on the borrow checker. I do question whether those opinions add anything to the conversation on this site.
