Ok, MichaelZuo - am I not supposed to be thinking that all of you are some randos on the Internet??

Bc that's exactly what I think about everyone on the Internet - do you actually just take some people's opinions or statements as bonafide truth just bc "they seem credible"

Think for yourself and just assume everyone is a fake identity bc 99% of the time that's going to be true - that's one of them "safe" assumptions where you actually look more like an ass if you don't make it.



It’s an interesting point but the actual technical discussions on HN wouldn’t work if we don’t “just take some people's opinions or statements as bonafide truth just bc "they seem credible"”, there would be much too long of a sussing out process for the forum paradigm to be tractable.
