Twitter isn't a person, it would be nice to credit the actual human who provided this to you.

I mean, it’s not like he created this feature, or that it’s a “weird undocumented trick” he found out…

Do you have to credit every person who shows you anything on the internet nowadays? Or is it just the common twitter-hate on HN?

It's still an uncredited effort by another person, copied and posted elsewhere as magic trick. I just think it is nice to publicly credit the people via whom one builds one's wisdom.

No Twitter hate at all here, on the contrary.

I did. Read my article. https://til.simonwillison.net/duckdb/remote-parquet#user-con...

I directly name and link to four people who contributed tips that helped me expand it.

Cheers and thank you! I had read the article in an earlier stage and thought you had copied that trick only here (where I would still think it would be nice to cite or link the person directly here on HN).
