> his memory is not as good as it was before

yes that’s what he’s saying, if consumers had less memory, his would be better.

Replying and disagreeing aren’t the same. Disagreeing and downvoting aren’t the same.

No worries, not an issue of stance, more of… let’s call it a reaction from my personal evaluation of the importance of the topic.

No, if downvoting means to disagree, one wants to know why.

If one wants to provide why, there are replies for that.

It’s a qualitative instrument, making it quantitative will change the use. Meanwhile, abuse always finds a way.

You’re making more assumptions than either of us before, the antenna analogy was not meant to be any more exact than your more crude one.

Attacking the analogy doesn’t resolve the actual uncertainty. Which is the difference between what we are doing. You insist certainty. I’m insisting that’s a bit silly.

there are far less violent imaginings to tickle yourself with, but also, sure, let’s do this.

you just destroyed the antenna and you claim the station is gone.

sure, sure, you will insist the burden of proof is on me, or suggest more violent imagery, or both.

you didn’t actually want to engage.

Comes with the cost of putting yourself out there. Not everyone is going to like it, and you won’t agree with the reasons.

Shouting “brigading” doesn’t do much to change that.

It also ignores the impact of upvotes, which can be used to the same effect, yet doesn’t receive the same request.

To the average consumer, deep blacks will look great in the next Avengers movie.

To the average consumer, obsessing over scroll feeling not completely perfect is a distraction from watching the next Avengers movie, if not downright neurotic behavior.

To a prosumer, the value may be obvious but the price may not be worth it. Which can lead to a distaste for the company, for not being a more accommodating company.

To a professional, if you need it, you need it, and you begrudgingly pay for it. Because you need it.

I don’t even know what my phone screen has. Wasn’t why I bought the pro at the time. Wanted the additional ram. So I wouldn’t feel as pressed to upgrade now. (Prosumer, aka neurotic.)

I already lost my job. The one I have now looks nothing like it. The one I have next year will likely look even different still.

hn title is completely different from the article title, which takes clicking the hn title to discover.

there’s a difference between a memo passed and a memo read. (let alone a memo acted upon.)

people make small talk for many reasons. like passing time while waiting for late meeting invitees.

so it’s a bit worse than “wrong.”
