Thanks for sticking up for me, lol. It's ok though. He's partly right in that I was in a rash burn-it-all down mood at the time of this post. Suggesting we start from scratch re: create an entirely new way to transfer information between machines was obviously pretty hyperbolic and over the top. I had just seen one too many AI-generated posts on bearblog and wanted to do the equivalent of go off-grid and hope there was some organic beauty to be found there before the parking lots inevitably appeared.

Anyway, let this be a lesson to me. Next time I post to HN, I should count to 10 and look at my rant with more rational eyes. No harm done.
