Hey, not sure if this is a side-effect of you taking this post down but I was interested in reading another of your posts about B2 vs S3 Glacier and am getting "Error establishing a database connection".
One important thing to always remember is that unless someone posted their article to Hacker News themselves they might have had absolutely no expectation that a huge audience was about to descend and dissect everything they wrote. They might have just been talking off the cuff, mentally noodling around or even just using the process of writing stuff down as a means to sort their thoughts. Far too often HN commenters work from the assumption that an author is intending to make A Big Point and very uncharitably deconstruct every sentence the author wrote.
It's only a matter of time before we see a reply along the lines of "OBVIOUSLY 10.15.4 did NOT break SSH, the author just didn't do X Y and Z to fix a very OBVIOUS mistake in their SSH config".

More broadly, Tyler doesn't owe the world anything in this regard. If he wants to post it, cool. If he wants to remove it, cool.
This is so true, I wish I could upvote this twice. I've been on the receiving end of this too, where something I wrote in the moment without much thought ended up at the top of HN with a whole lot of criticism.
That's my intent. I'll put it back online for others to find once the fuss dies down.
