Comment on Ask PG: How did you come to that conclusion?

Comments

Thanks to you all for commenting.

@brudgers thanks for your impressive comments. And I totally agree with you on "My impression is that PG often says things that require unpacking. There's not a lot of meaningless fill." Actually I keep wondering why not everyone who is into building/developing something users want, analyses his quotes to the bone.

@rubiquity PG had no reason for being arrogant.

@27182818284 Of course you are right. Alexis mentions in the book that this quote stayed with him until today. So the reader expects this quote to have a certain significance. And of course, the quote by itself has to be put into context. That is the reason I was asking for context :)
