I was replying directly to embik (edit: which is, err, you, which I did not notice at first). I acknowledge and apologize that my parenthetical could look like I was talking about apricity, but I was not. I'm not taking the defense for apricity. Indeed I have a track record of recommending against young people doing things that will make people who trust them very, very angry when they can't follow through properly: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2974770 I just didn't see a point in joining the pile-on, which seems to have covered the bases fairly well.

And in turn, I have to apologize to you as well because I can see how my comment could be viewed as arguing against you. I didn't think you were defending Apricity at all, I was kinda trying to re-inforce your point by pointing out how he missed to point out important information about his project. Thank you very much for giving advice to novice developers, I very much appreciate it!
