> you started this conversation with arguing against yourself

How so ?

Meanwhile, what you qualified as blog spam is actually proving to be written by a human spending too much time answering your rant.

> How so ?

Who said any of the parts you quoted in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49594757?

It looks like you made up all of those lines.


That the concept of comments: those lines come from me. No AI (can you believe?)

Hence the whole "arguing with yourself" part...

Generally, we use quotes here for actual quotes, not quoting stuff we've read in other newspapers or on reddit or whatever, but real verbatim quotes.

I think it used to be a proper guidelines back in the day, or at least people got really up in their arms if you used quote syntax for things that weren't actually verbatim quotes.

But besides that, what's the point? Why share other's viewpoints you don't even agree with, so you can argue against them yourself? Why not wait until someone who actually has those viewpoints, share them? Or even better, why not just say nothing at all?


Did you create an account this morning? This trend is a good ten year old lmao
