Both of you are hashing something out that 'dang has already called out as off-topic across the thread.

They should say so in their bio, and they should not speak for each other, and so on. It’s messy and unprofessional as it is, and big if true.
I don’t appreciate you jumping into the thread to dogpile either, but you do you.
I appreciate you saying so; dang also replied to my email to that effect. Hopefully the other folks get the memo, though I understand that you can’t reply to them directly, as their comment is [flagged] and [dead].
For my own sake, I apologize to everyone, and to you directly, tptacek, for the way this thread took a weird turn; it was illuminating in its own way.
Dang has told me more than once to let the mods do the moderating and to not hash it out amongst ourselves, as it steps on their toes and makes any enforcement by mods seem selective. Email and/or flag, and move along.
I don’t work here, and neither do you, so let’s both agree to disagree on it being on-topic or not, as it’s not my place to speak for dang or the other mods, and it’s not yours either, for that matter.
