alt Hacker NewsMost people here would be interested in Rob Pike's opinion. What you quote is from someone commenting on Rob's post.
The way that Rob's opinion here is deflected, first by focusing on the fact that he got a spam mail and then this misleading quote ("myself" does not refer to Rob) is very sad.
The spam mail just triggered Rob's opinion (the one that normal people are interested in).

Both are intellectually gratifying, to me. I think the only mistake they made was leaving the attribution ambiguous.

I think you have an overinflated notion of what "normal people" care about

This comment deserves to be ranked higher. I 100% interpreted the quote as coming from Rob Pike.
