Maybe - but [marginalia_nu](https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=marginalia_nu) isn't an armchair expert - they've actually implemented theor own publically available search engine - which is linked in their profile.
I didn't say they are. Only that the initial comment sounded like that. And in the thread above we discussed a bit about their achievements. I really liked it and learned a lot.

I'm certainly not so full of myself to demand some sort of special treatment on the Internet :P
And I learned already a lot in this thread after the explanations unfolded.
The initial statement sounded exactly like the armchair "experts" one so often encounters. Actually this was for a long time the first time that there is a person with substantial experience in the problem space behind such a statement.
