Saying "appeal to authority" doesn't refute the point made above. Expertise is real. Someone with 25 years of experience with the linux kernel will know a lot more about linux and C than the average HN commenter. Almost certainly more than me.
Its possible that you might be right about whatever point you're trying to make. But if you are, I can't tell that from your comments. I can't even find a clear claim in your comments, let alone any substantive argument in support of that claim.

I'm unmoved and unimpressed.
