All I'm saying is it would be better if you knew what you were talking about. AMD has been outsourcing verification to its customers for many years.
You have no idea what you're talking about if you think for a second that a large CPU vendor like AMD would delegate verification to "its customers". It's like saying that Boeing just builds planes and tells airlines to make sure they fly correctly before allowing passengers to board them.
This is uncivil and not ok on HN. Please take time to edit this kind of swipe out of your comments here.
Also, how was our argument a "flame war"? It only lasted for 3-4 replies, and was quite civil in my opinion.
I tend to always agree with your decisions, but this one is a bit too extreme.
When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. E.g. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."
Similarly, "You have no idea what you're talking about if you think for a second that a foo like bar would baz" can be shortened to, "A foo like bar wouldn't baz."
HN's rules apply regardless of how other commenters are behaving. If they didn't, we might as well have no rules, because it always feels like others are behaving worse.
