Thanks for the link, you scroll down and see the rebuttal by Gergely > Confirmed speakers at DevTernity 2021, 2022 and 2023 and JDKon 2024 do not exist. There were & are no such engineers at Coinbase or Meta. > I shared this fact and said no conference should list fake speakers. There is no "crime" there per se, having a fake speaker in your lineup is a doozy, but it's different from, let's say, saying Bill Gates (with his picture) will be at your conference with no attempt of doing so. Now I do think the reasons listed by the conference organizer are feeble at best, but (moderately) plausible. I'd never put a placeholder saying so and so are "Engineer at Coinbase" and giving them fake names/pictures

A reasonable rebuttal. But how are his original comments therefore “butthurt”? This was what I was arguing against, remember? You seem to be making the same misinterpretation of my comment as people in that thread; simply because some comment is not 100% supportive of one side, you think it must therefore be defending the other side. He expressed concern that mob justice was being perpetrated rashly, and people are interpreting that as support for the other side. Similarly, I was arguing against your categorization of his argument as being “butthurt”, and you immediately think that I am supporting the other side of the argument, and therefore present me with rebuttals to that argument, instead of what I actually wrote.
