I haven't downvoted you but it is presumably because of your hasty typing or lack of proofreading/research.

33TB (first google result from 5 years ago) not 33GB. Larger figures from more recently.

This is exactly what I meant with "HN is becoming quite hostile"

* I brought up something I looked up to support GP's argument.

* The argument is correct.

* I do it in good faith.

* G is literally next to T.

* I even praise the article, while at it.

"Oh, but you made a typo!".

Good luck, guys. I'm out.

PS. I will give my whole 7 figure net worth, no questions asked, transferred immediately to any account of their choice, to anyone here who has not ever made a typo in their life.

My greatest typo was saying "I Do" when it should have been "I Go".

You sound deeply unpleasant to talk to.

Imaginary internet points are just that.

Don't take it too personally. Downvoting/flagging it makes it clear to people who come across it in the future that it's wrong.
I haven't ever made a typo, all of my mispelings are intended and therefore not mistakes
Some days it's worth it to burn some imaginary internet points for the good of the discussion and article. People downvote for various reasons, which we will never be able to figure out why definitely. Each person is different, and they all have days where they swing one way or another.
Like I said, I didn't downvote and took the time to answer your question. I didn't take the time to sugarcoat it.

You are interpreting bluntness as hostility; that's ultimately an issue for you to resolve.

You don't have to sugarcoat it.

You just have to read this site's guidelines and follow them.

Ez pz.

Have been throughout. Anyway, I hope you are able to reconsider and move on within HN.
