Basically, somebody left a comment saying the author was wrong and didn't know what he was talking about in a very aggressive way without demonstrating where it was wrong and why.

Sorry for the drama. I know its off topic, but its all I can contribute since I know very little about the implementation of base data types.

Amusingly the drama continued with a new post:

> censoring my comment will not resolve the inherent dishonesty of this article!!!

Even more amusingly, the commenter's name links to disney.com. Or perhaps it is a strange new astroturfing campaign.

Keeping up: The commenter has now acknowledged that the previous accusation was baseless

Andy has previously had some asshats telling him he's wrong on things where he obviously is not. I don't know if there is one individual that holds a grudge or if he attracts an annoying number of know-it-alls.
