Please don't post duplicate comments to HN! It lowers signal-noise ratio and makes it hard to merge threads. Now that the threads are merged, we have to go find the other copies and kill them, and if they have replies, move the replies to the surviving copy. That takes REPL work and is a pain. Here's what to do instead: when you notice that a discussion has forked and your comment is languishing in the losing branch, email hn@ycombinator.com and get us to merge them. Then your comment will get moved to the winning branch, and you've benefited the whole community with an un-split discussion. |

Funnily enough, right before you posted this comment I had responded to you, explaining my decision to post twice, here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21609044
Please feel free to delete my parent comment :-)
