That Google search you suggested appears (barring some UI thing I'm missing because I'm on Mobile) to only have two results, your comment and the 4chan archive. Is there a name for a google search with exactly two results? I know

Could you justify any of those statements? I'm especially interested in why you think nginx is "utter trash", for example. Also, isn't there an HN rule about discussion having to be constructive instead of just whaling
