An unqualified "best" means it's the best. It was an unfortunate turn of phrase by Ive, a person known to make mistakes, as pointed out several times here on HN.
No not really, real life does not work that, you can be best in some aspect while not the best in other aspects but for some reason you dont seem to understand nuance, its probably your hatred for Ive that seems to be clouding your judgement.
"Best in some aspects" is not an unqualified best. Maybe Ive should have been more careful about his wording -- which was my point, after all!
> its probably your hatred for Ive that seems to be clouding your judgement
Wow. Hatred. I don't even know the guy, how can I hate him? I don't own a Mac, I just use one provided by my work. I don't own an iphone. I really don't pay much attention to Ive at all, just pointing out a flaw in his wording.
Is that how you normally debate by making personal attacks? You have already made up your mind the Ive makes many mistakes.
> Maybe Ive should have been more careful about his wording -- which was my point, after all!
and my point was that there are nuances which for some reason you still dont understand because you have already made up your mind about Ive, so lets agree to disagree because you are not going to change your opinion.
You are making personal attacks saying Ive has made many mistakes, instead of just arguing about the main point you have already made up your mind that whatever he does is a mistake and then you refuse to understand why you are wrong.
I dont need luck when facts are on my side. Good luck understanding nuance in the future.
Well... You're the only one mentioning him at this point. Who's obsessed?
What's funny is that you overstepped the line with the "personal attack" claim -- you know it, I know it -- but you're too stubborn to back down now, so you resort to... making personal attacks.
Have you ever heard of "Good/Cheap/Fast — pick two"?
