FWIW, I flagged and downvoted both of your comments. The article is a very interesting overview of the space and recent developments, and having to scroll past multiple paragraphs about your low attention span and reading difficulties to get to some actual technical discussion was quite frustrating!

Is flagging and downvoting really the right tool to express disagreement of opinion here? I disagree very much with what you just wrote, but I would not flag it.

For the next time, instead of scrolling, you can just press the little "-" next to a post which collapses it and its whole subtree. Out of sight.

Besides, I explicitly stated that I read 2/3 of the article. How is that "low attention span"? And I didn't just bash it, I formulated what I find missing in it. Do you have answers to those questions? And how does asking such questions indicate "reading difficulties"?

It's quite fascinating that if my comment is so appaling to you, why you'd take the time to respond. I thank you for that though.
