What does that even mean?

I'd be happy to answer that question if you posed it straight, rather than as a an attempted dunk. Of course, the search bar on this thread will lead you to plenty of additional conversation about the vulnerability and the attempts to downplay it.

  • Seriously? You replied to what I said with no follow up and a hazy premise and now you want me to take your leash and lead you through your own argument?

    You have to be the single worst HN celebrity.

      You caused the problem here. You started off being hazy and rude.

      "Say that again without trying to dunk on anyone if you want me to put effort into responding." seems like a pretty reasonable trade.

You actually participated in it and called cyber security researchers addicted to likes. Ironic.

  • how does this have anything to do with the original post?

    also, psuedo cybersecurity researchers are definitely addicted to likes.

    edited: looks like half of that post even agrees with them so i mean...?
