Not to mention that this boats gentlemen is on account number 3 already, so it appears that moderators on this site have already told –him more than once– that he should offer his "generous donations of free time" somewhere else if he cannot adjust his behavior.

(His older accounts show the same patterns of throwing childish tantrums and blowing up on random people.)

You weren't kidding. It's the exact same attitude of focusing on authority rather than explaining things technically.

This comment contains a link to a detailed technical explanation of why the person I was replying to was wrong. Does your browser not support websites others than Hacker News? What is this peculiar delusion you have in which content not written into this little box is not real content?

Hacker News comments are divided between useful, inquisitive engagement, to which I react positively and smarmy, self-important bullshit, to which I react with scorn. You have made clear your allegiance to the latter. Sad!

What are your expectations exactly when you try to patronize people and tell them about their "total ignorance" while also just throwing out links to random blog posts?

If someone replies with insults and then just links to a google search page you wouldn't think they're some sort of authority because they promised you the evidence to their claim is out there somewhere.

If you want people to actually respect what you're saying you need to do things differently from both angles. Stop the toxic claims of authority and give simple explanations that are direct replies to what people are talking about.

I created new accounts because I didn't register with an email and lost the login. What a nasty person you are! Why don't you go create something?
