Ascended_Saiyan3: 'It IS real world, just look at these theoretical numbers!'
This deeply amused me. |
This WOULD be amusing, if you didn't just lie and misquote me. At least, people know not to trust what you say, now. Thanks.
Then, of course, slowmo would join in with you, which makes him look just as bad. It's sad. |
I'm guessing you don't understand the difference between "full quotes" and 'half quotes'. Full quotes is what would be used to literally quote you. Half quotes, to my knowledge, are used for "quotations 'within' quotations", and also to show paraphrasing, which is what I was doing: paraphrasing what you said. I believe I was entirely accurate in summing up what you said:
"I guess you don't understand that inter-core bandwidth IS real world. The theoretical inter-core bandwidth is over 200GB/s."
So, I condensed the first sentence down to "It IS real world", where "it" referred to inter-core bandwidth. Since there's nothing else somebody might reasonably think "it" meant (or is there? please tell me) then I stand by my position that this was a completely accurate paraphrasing of the first sentence.
Your second sentence looked (and looks) to me like a continuation of what you are talking about in the first one. If that is indeed the case then you are using a theoretical statistic to support the position that something has real-world performance. I found (and find) this idea hilarious. In any case, I substituted "just look at these theoretical numbers" for your actual example of said theoretical numbers. I stand by my position that this was a completely reasonable substitution in order to accurately paraphrase your position for satirical purposes.
Or, to sum up, I didn't lie. I didn't misquote you -- and I did not, in fact, quote you at all, as such. Nobody trusts me less because of that post. And we aren't the sad ones.

I'm dissapointed that you went to all the trouble to explain what should have been obvious to him =P
As a result I can no longer trust what you say ANYMORE!!!!! That of course has nothing to do with what you post though =P
