Actually I was summarizing his article. The situation he describes in pubsub for Websockets is exactly this.

Thats not a summary, any more than "action movie" is a summary of Iron Man.
That comic cleverly names a common technical motivation. But it doesn't summarize the work because it removes all the interesting & relevant technical details.
Its also really done at this point. That link has been posted 733 times in HN comments[1]. It was funny the first time, but its time to let it die.

The way you wrote this sounds like you disagree with my sentiment because I misunderstood your original intent with linking the xkcd, but I understood that you felt that the comic was an apt description.
