I truly must be for ever wanting to read a post by someone who talks to their readers like this. I even went out of my way to say I wasn't being sarcastic.

Let us part ways, then, and in the meantime I encourage you to find the light you must be missing in your life.

My sincere apologies if I read this uncharitably, I interpreted your comment about sarcasm to itself be sarcastic. I will not be publishing any such post.

To clarify what you seem not to understand: the code in the blog post depends on a library called monoio, and based on the post's description of the behavior of that code (I haven't actually read the source for monoio), monoio contains a bug. I don't dispute that this code behaves incorrectly, just that it has anything to do with Rust's facility for async IO rather than with the specific IO library employed in the post.

Master of being condescending, too.

I know the GP comment was provocative, but please don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes things worse.

Could you please not post like this to Hacker News? It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41996506 was much better, of course.)

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
