Oh no, please don't attack others like this in comments here. Even if you clearly mean well (which I'd say is the case here), it can only cause harm.

geocar's comments are consistently excellent (including for explaining the niceties of kdb and array languages to the community) and having fewer of them would make this place worse. Not everything needs to be spelled out, and besides, sometimes there just isn't time to do so. It can be a lot more work!

As a long time K evangelist (before KDB 2 even) I understand that but this post just played into all the bad stereotypes of KDB+ being jibberish and line noise. Even for somebody veered K it took me a minute to figure out -3!. He isn't [email protected] posting to the K mailing list.

I did vote the comment up before responding to him as KDB, but I'm not sure why really.
