Sorry, I genuinely don't understand. How am I ignoring the original context (in my followup reply)?
I'll agree that my response was content-free. It was even aggressively hostile, and I could have been kinder about it. I'm sure that it was not fun to have someone flagrantly mocking your words.
- scholia 13y agoMy original was a response to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6039938 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6039938 and the context was that the site was being criticized. > I'm sure that it was not fun to have someone flagrantly mocking your words. Seriously? You must have missed Usenet in the 1980s.
- foobarbazqux 13y agoOh I see. Yeah, I never really considered it. I like to think that we live in a more... enlightened age than when Usenet was around, and that was a genuine apology.
- scholia 13y agoNone needed, really. I didn't take offense at your comment, and I didn't think it was unfair. I'm not carrying any grudges ;-) (Belated response because I've just spent 24 hours travelling, and my brain is still something like a wet dishrag....)
