I don't claim to own the thread, but since you've jumped in to respond on behalf of the other person I responded to, I'm going to to tell you again that what you want to talk about here isn't what I'm here to talk about. There are plenty of other subthreads here talking about whether disabling Nagle by default is a good thing or not; maybe join one of them.
I'm not responding on anyone's behalf. I think your attitude here is really weird. You are in fact asserting that you are the arbiter of what can be discussed in this subthread. If you don't want to discuss what I'm discussing - just don't respond? Telling me to go away is so strangely aggressive, I'm baffled.
I'm not going to respond any further because this seems very unproductive.
Isn't that just how threads (and debates in general) work?
I even tried emailing tptacek to try and be part of the change he said he wanted to see. Crickets.
HN folk can be a bit hypersensitive and / or opaque at times. Text medium is not always ideal as it provides no signals for tone, and our brains backfill this information in a biased manner.
You emailed me less than an hour ago (I found out about it here, just now) and then tried to dunk on me for not replying. I think we can save ourselves some time and disengage.
