I mean sure, but I wouldn't work at such places anyway. One cannot escape complexity, it's either in your code or in other people's code that you use. Don't overengineer, but not everything you'd think is overengineering is actually the case. Otherwise, just work in assembly.
It is also interesting that you haven't responded to the other comments that call out flaws in your argument, just mine, perhaps because you don't have an answer for them either, as your original comment is now dead.
I did not flag your comment, if that's what you're implying. I can't downvote comments I reply to and I'm pretty sure flagging has no effect either on such comments.
But yes, it's still interesting that you haven't responded to those other comments, as I've said.
Yikes! You can't post like this to HN and we ban accounts that do.
I don't want to ban you because your account has been around for a while—but when I look through your history I see so many comments breaking the site guidelines (and often quite badly) that I don't think we have much of a choice. However, we also haven't warned you before, so I suppose it would be fair to start with that.
If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules from now on, we'd be grateful. That means no more personal attacks, putdowns, name-calling, or flamebait—at a minimum. We want thoughtful, substantive, curious conversation. I did see at least one comment on the good side: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37235139, which is a nice proof that you can do this. Please stick to this from now on!
