No, he was clearly saying any person who downloaded the app based on her cancer story is a nutjob. He is saying that for any non-nutjob finding for sure she was lying is like finding out for sure that water is wet.
I don't agree with the OP, as I think people can be naive without being a nutjob.
I was probably being a bit harsh calling them all nutjobs, but yes, there was more to my sentence beyond the "everyone" part that eldavjohn didn't seem to read past.
Yes, I do. It's why we have idiotic parents who aren't giving their kids vaccinations so now we have kids dying again of measles, whooping cough, etc. Diseases that a few decades ago were all but eradicated.
So you're saying everyone knew she was lying about her charity donations as well [theage.com.au]? Or was it only the charities that knew that? From the article:
Everyone? No. But anyone who wasn't some doe-eyed true believer? Yes and Yes.
So you're saying the 300,000 downloads are by people that knew they were downloading the app architected by a liar? And they were paying $3.79 to Apple and this liar for a recipe app that contain recipes that someone lied about helping her cure cancer?
Of course not. They are those psuedo-science nutjobs that I referred to. The same idiots who by crap from Kevin Trudeau, etc. Did you even bother to read everything I wrote or did you just read up to the "everyone" part of the sentence and then start foaming at the mouth?
You first claimed all the Hurds problems were lack of developers yet I can name dozens of toy OSes with USB support that predate Hurd's support by years if not almost a decade. Then you just claimed it was all due to their design, yet MINIX3 has pretty much the same design has supported USB for most of its life.
Even if it had been released as 1.0 it would still be as useless and irrelevant as it is at 0.6. Hurd users can likely be counted on a single hand at this point in time.
The summary didn't say the inventor of the Segway. It said the owner of the company. If you're going to try to be pedantic at least have an elementary school level of reading comprehension.

Wait. A person who made dubious claims that had no scientific backing to them was actually lying? What next? Water is wet?!!
I think pretty much everyone but the nutjob, true believers in psuedo-science knew all along that this woman was lying.
The faces give it away no matter what you watch it on.
Get compensation for their family for wrongful execution.
No, people would move to many other choices long before HURD.
It's because HURD is nothing but a laughingstock at this point.
FreeBSD never used the Mach kernel at all. Where ever did you get such nonsense?
QNX is a commercially-successful, relatively old pure microkernel, inspired from Minix
That's an amazing feat of MINIX considering QNX was released in 1982 and MINIX in 1987.
What do you mean shifting?

I'm sure the other Hurd user must be might impressed.
Cool goalpost shifting. Stop trying to make excuse for the fact that the Hurd team is simply incompetent.
Why don't you go help, then?
Because it would be a complete waste of time. No one uses the Hurd and no one ever will.
Probably stings even worse that Hurd is so useless that even RMS won't use it.
GNU/Hurd: 2060 or Bust!!
Well Hurd did not get the developer attention that Linux got. Obviously, this means that progress in Hurd is going to be slower than Linux.
MenuetOS has less than a handful of developers and yet has had USB support for at least 7 years now.
Sure, but even toy OSes like MenuetOS have had USB support for longer than Hurd.
Even if it had been released as 1.0 it would still be as useless and irrelevant as it is at 0.6. Hurd users can likely be counted on a single hand at this point in time.
USB support only a few years ago? And there are people who expect Hurd to be taken seriously? Mind boggling...
So its user base has doubled? Amazing!
Yes, hence why it said the owner of the company not the inventor.

No, it wouldn't. This guy is completely delusional to think that Valve has any significant impact on what GPU someone buys.
