> The parts of the industry that agrees with your opinion, you mean? I am referring to an industry consensus, not simply a random subset of industry professionals. You are free to dismiss that as irrelevant as you dismiss other evidence if you like. > I noticed that you're not replying to my other question. Can i take it from that, that you're more interested in trolling than genuine discourse? Given your behavior if you had the ability to be notified by replies I think it would be worse for discourse on HN, as you would get in more discussions like the one you are going out of your way to prolong here. I simply don't want to be the one to enable that. I was honestly thankful you asked a question I felt I could ignore so that particular discussion could end.

> I am referring to an industry consensus, not simply a random subset of industry professionals. You are free to dismiss that as irrelevant as you dismiss other evidence if you like. You do know that "consensus" means: > An opinion or position reached by a group as a whole. Ergo there is no consensus reached and thus your opinion is subjective. > Given your behavior if you had the ability to be notified by replies I think it would be worse for discourse on HN, as you would get in more discussions like the one you are going out of your way to prolong here. I simply don't want to be the one to enable that. Ouch. More insults and personal attacks. You do also realise you're the one who said you'd keep replying until I stop? Shouldn't your comment apply to yourself too? (those are rhetorical questions by the way) > I was honestly thankful you asked a question I could just leave hanging so that particular discussion could finally end. So you're just interested in trolling then. Got it.

  > You do know that "consensus" means: > > An opinion or position reached by a group as a whole. > Ergo there is no consensus reached and thus your opinion is subjective. You seem to be under the mistaken impression a consensus is synonymous with unanimous consent - that simply isn't so. Look at a scientific consensus for example, there will always be a minority of scientists who disagree. > Ouch. More insults and personal attacks. Well, certainly not 'more' since unlike you I didn't engage in insults...that aside, though, insulting you here was honestly not my intention, but that is an honest answer to the question you asked. > You do also realise you're the one who said you'd keep replying until I stop? Shouldn't your comment apply to yourself too? (those are rhetorical questions by the way) Rhetorical or not, responding since this was edited in after my reply and I think is a misrepresentation. I said upfront that I would rather be done but will continue to reply to anything that I feel is a misrepresentation. You simply said you wanted to be done, yet went out of your way to continue the discussion, even if it was to do nothing more than add an insult. > So you're just interested in trolling then. Got it. Not at all. There is a reason I didn't reply and say that in answer to your question, and only answered here because you asked explicitly. It's what I honestly believe. Sorry.
