"bigiain" comment, in the same discussion is an example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48120707

There is comment like this everywhere, if you don't see them it's just that you don't want to see them. There are a little less frequent than 5 years ago but still frequent enough in each c, c++ or rust discussions.

Which part of the comment comes off as fanatic to you?

I'd disagree with that poster that you can write 100% security bug free code just like that.

Can you discuss productively without attacks? Mine was, and still is, a question of genuine curiosity. And the only "fanatic" thing in your linked comment is a bogus 100% claim. I'm not seeing fanaticism.

I didn't use the word 'fanatic' neither the previous comment you were responded too.

> Can you discuss productively without attacks?

So you thing someone telling you "look a little harder" is a "personal attack" ? After I took some time to give you a link you ask for ?

> I'm not seeing fanaticism.

You are the only one using this word in this discussion.

If you are taking the time to find a link then understand that your effort can be for naught if you could not resist to insert "if you don't see them it's just that you don't want to see them". What's your imagined ideal outcome when you comment... this, exactly?

Advice: just put the link and skip snarky commentary. Trying to emotionally load your message does not move discussions forward. It puts them in a corner.

> You are the only one using this word in this discussion.

OK, fair -- then I want to hear what words you'd use. Apart from the guy claiming an imaginary "all security bugs will be fixed" which I already said I disagree with, are there other criticisms?

That you take more time to search yourself before asking other to do it.

> Advice: just put the link and skip snarky commentary

As usual, the one requesting compliance to other is often the worst offender.

> Apart from the guy claiming an imaginary "all security bugs will be fixed" which I already said I disagree

That was exactly the point of the 'bluedragon1221' initial comment you were responded to. So finally you agree ?
