> I will put it as simple as I can: I have read your comment. Multiple times. I have no idea what you are saying. Geez! :) HN aims for constructive engagement, dang puts it as "coming with curiosity". > (rest) There we go. :) That's coming with curiosity. And you do get it! I'm not sure why you're down on yourself. The ELI5 accent you used is even helpful, it stress exactly how mundane it is. Yes, it's a function. Yes, it has parameters. Yes, the parameters can be adjusted. And? It's begging the question, many of them. All we've established is its a power law function. I also recommend the more constructive reply to my post, from an hour before you posted.

> HN aims for constructive engagement I’m terribly sorry if it came through as hurtfull. Was not my intention. > dang puts it as "coming with curiosity" I believe i lived up to that ethos on this occasion. I gave multiple reading to your comment. And when I concluded that I do not understand your thesis I wrote a very carefully worded message to let you know. In fact it seems someone else already wrote you a comment with the same message. They told you that they don’t understand you, and you responded as if they disagreed with some detail of your point. When I would have expected that you either ignore them (as is your right) or that you clarify your overall thought. > ELI5 accent you used is even helpful I did that perhaps unintentionally. I hope you don’t mind me asking: is English your native language? > I'm not sure why you're down on yourself. I assure you I’m not down on myself. Not sure what gave you that impression. > Yes, it's a function. Yes, it has parameters. Yes, the parameters can be adjusted. > And? And you overgeneralised the article and lost their point in the meantime. “If You Open Your Mind Too Much Your Brain Will Fall Out” as the song says. > I also recommend the more constructive reply to my post, from an hour before you posted. Thank you! Will give it a read.
