For what it's worth I'm embarrassed by my entire dialog with you. I was having a bad day, sleep deprived and coming on HN to escape. I wasn't thinking clearly or communicating clearly, and on top of that I was straight up wrong about some things that were independent of my state of mind.
On a couple occasions I typed out things that I didn't actually mean. I also was making logic errors, and was embarrassingly biased by a bunch of pop-psychology viral stuff I had seen years earlier.
While my interactions with you were frustrating for me in the moment, I appreciate them now because they triggered a bunch of corrective reflection (including unlearning some things, which is typically a lot less fun than learning). I also want to acknowledge that they were probably frustrating for you too, and I want to thank you for engaging and staying civil despite me acting irrationally.
Hopefully you see this despite the significant delay in response.
Sincerely,
