speaking of jokes, it may be you who is the joker.
to paraphrase that joke about consultants ("a consultant is a person who knows more and more about less and less, until eventually he knows everything about nothing"):
you may be the kind of person who knows the theory of everything, but the practice of nothing.
and you might be missing the rather obvious fact that I don't give a fuck about whether I miss the joke or not. I was just putting out my own comment. you see, I may be one of the few people here, who happen to have that seemingly somewhat vanishing ability of being able to think for myself, and not just echo the opinion of the hive mind, and not kowtow to arbitrary user-wannabe-moderator defined conventions, whether of hn or other places, like you seem to be doing, in your comment above. I don't have to care whether it has relevance to the context or not, particularly not when some random person like you thinks so.
and ...
as is often said on hn, the plural of anecdote is not data. that is what your comment is, just an anecdote - to me, anyway.
so do not stupidly try to impose your way of thinking upon me, which is exactly what you tried to do in your comment above.
and ...
"different strokes for different folks" - sound familiar?
and because of all the above, and much more, which everyone sensible person knows, as amy hoy has famously said - fuck hn. fuck some of the people on it anyway, because they need it, because of that asshole behavior.
really? :)
