If that were the case, every single project would be hosted on Hetzner with a Postgres database and everyone would be running Linux desktops everywhere. It's not happening.

I've no idea about leaders as those do not write here much. As for "influencers" - my golden rule is to research subject I am having doubts about and pay zero attention to what so called "influencers" say.

You'll never know if the person you abuse on HN is Sam or Cook, since they use alts to plant ideas or assess damage their misdeeds are causing.

I was talking about getting "influenced". I do not base my research on what's on HN. Prefer to find and read articles on specific subjects.

There's a fast-follow "You're absolutely right!" from Claude pending here. :)

If this is a joke, it was a very good one.

God. The pretentiousness.

Clearly leading something alright
