I don't remember assigning fault.

“Weak sauce”?

> “Weak sauce”?

Whether that counts as assigning blame or not, I have not typed those words in the last decade or more.

Sure, but as a casual passer-by it seems like you're rationalizing the somewhat petulant comment from tpmx which did include those words: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27755083

> Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.

You could have said that to the person complaining about 'weak sauce' in the first place. Or you could have applied it to my previous comment* instead of quibbling. It's a two-way street.

I only just realized you aren't even the person who posted it.

Let's drop this thread, if he has a problem with me editing it, that's on him to say; I thought you were him considering how deep this got.

Here's the underlying: he responded late, it's his job to refresh, that's not etiquette, it's how the site functions.
