If you don't know the most common causes of a site going down, do you really have the right to ask people if they really have the right to tell people how to write code?

No to mention they're not actually telling people how to write code.

"Weak programming"?

I rest my case.

"The site went down, but it's not my fault. Even though I'm the guy coding it". ok, 10x.

You clearly don't know what actually causes most site outages. Move along.

And you're clearly the arbiter that gets to tell people what they do and don't know. I guess pretending to be competent online helps you, in some way.

Just pointing out the facts. Some of us do clearly know more about this issue than you do, so not sure why you are continuing in this manner.

Because four times now you've said "I know more than you" and have provided nothing of substance to back your claims. I know this is HN and "what you say" means more than "what you do", but hipster bravado will only get you so far.

Other people in this thread have pointed out the erroneous assumptions in your comment. In this particular example, you are showing your ignorance of the discussion and continuing to respond in a spoiled manner. Please don't contribute to HN this way.
