I see your account is from 2007, so I'm a bit surprised you're not familiar with the community guidelines. I'll link them here for you: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

I'm copying out 2 points I think are most relevant here:

- Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community.

- Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

I asked for counter-proof of my dismissal and reasoning, and all you offer up is copy pasted points that aren't applicable.

Yes my dismissal was shallow, as was the article in question. Here's a more verbose version that should satisfy you?

The article speaks of using SQLite in production but only mentions the existence of WAL-mode and suggests its use. That is general (not production specific) advice that is well known in the community. While the promotion of SQLite is a good thing, I found this article wanting in delivering on what the title suggested.
