You aren't even responding to the words you quoted. Read it carefully. With little experience, you have no way to know if your impression is accurate or not. So your confidence in your knowledge should be low. And this…
"Ad hominem" is not something you just say whenever you dislike what someone said and poof, you magically win an argument.
An example of what? Performance is not the issue. The issue is your code is complex, hard to understand, and harder still to debug. It is one thing to force people to deal with an event loop and associated callbacks…
That's pretty standard now. HN is worse than reddit these days, it is amazing.

PHP is the standard bearer for the expert beginner. People write something that seems to be working quite quickly, so they feel they "get it" and know what they are doing. And then they stagnate and stay like that for…

A much worse DVCS, but written by a famous person.
PHP is full of problems that lead directly to security vulnerabilities if you aren't constantly aware of them and very careful when writing your code. So when someone who doesn't know those problems (most people) "hacks…
And I am telling you that is not the part I said is a lie.

This part: "Discrimination on the basis of sex is, in fact, not as illegal"
This is seriously the level of discourse here? Just flagrant outright lying?
The equal rights amendment was not about equality. I am legally equal to a man. That should be the end of government involvement. Discrimination is already illegal. Domestic violence is already illegal. Being opposed to…
I can't imagine any way to make it clearer for you, sorry. But perhaps I can set you on a path that might help. The word "honest" does not only mean "sincere; frank". It can also mean "honorable in principles,…
