Jorge doesn't have to swallow anything. In fact he has not. He has engaged with the subject at hand and has not responded to the troll bait about his lib. Notice he continues to receive feedback, about the subject. As does rektide even though he was the person who derailed the conversation in the first place.
You however, chose to respond to the bait by throwing a tantrum and calling the whole community childish and unprofessional (** groan **). Even though it looks like the comment that set you off from rektide, who brought up TAGG in the first place. So as desperately hard as you're trying to have a rational discussion about this, you seem to be the only person who can't seem to do so. And at this point, responding to you is starting to feel dangerously like feeding trolls... oh damn. Guess I fell for it too. :Marco Sent from my iPhone On Sep 17, 2012, at 4:25 AM, Bruno Jouhier <[email protected]> wrote: > > So it is perfectly fine if someone writes: > > "Threads-a-go-go is a pretty daft silly thing. > It's certainly not the safe sane shared-nothing threading that keeps Node & > JS safe.
