Sarkeizen:'Is the sorting instantaneous?'

Yeah.a few quadrillianths of a second inbetween react-sort

To react is to sort in any demon's case.simultaneous

Sarkeizen, you were wrong in your statement, as I pointed out; plain and simple.
How you reacted to that is interesting: instead of simply saying something like 'I could have phrased it better' or 'yes, you're right', you made it personal.
I corrected Simon Derricutt this week on a forum; his response was a simple 'thanks, Bill.
I don't usually point errors out; when I do it with the intent to have crystal clear communication that does not require inferring, guessing, reading between the lines etc.
This will be my last post on this particular exchange; there are better ways to spend my time.
Re"Now there are literally over a thousand posts from me.  It's likely I made an error in there somewhere.  Why not go through those and find one so you can feel better about all this." No, I enjoy your posts and they are usually enjoyable to read.

Sarkeizen, you were wrong in your statement

I used a term in a way that it gets used all the time even by people in-field.  You seemed to agree that it is a correct usage (otherwise your statement about 'may refer to' would have been pointless) and now seem to backtrack to just asserting yourself as correct.  Perhaps because you lost your footing in your previous post?

, you made it personal.

Not really.  I asked you to clarify your position after sharing how my experience shaped my expectations for people who respond the way you did.  Funny, how my desire to understand your position is entirely absent from your analysis.

when I do it with the intent to have crystal clear communication that does not require inferring, guessing, reading between the lines etc.

LOL.  Really?  That's the line you're selling here?  Perhaps you can point out exactly where in this thread you displayed any obvious lack of understanding as to what I was communicating?  No?  In other words you didn't have to do any inferring, guessing or even reading between the lines.  Not to mention that unless your primary language is Lojban you are likely doing this ALL the time in ordinary conversation probably doing those very things many times in this exchange alone.

This will be my last post on this particular exchange; there are better ways to spend my time.

Perhaps you can, when you feel a bit better correct your position and be a bit more reasonable in the future?

No, I enjoy your posts and they are usually enjoyable to read.

Yours need some work.

Yeah.a few quadrillianths of a second inbetween react-sort

So it's constantly getting slower then the more bits you add.
