Clearly a millennial who grew up with information handed to them on a silver platter.
These days it is common practice to “ask an expert”, much as it was in the pre Google days.
Conventional information channels are no longer trusted and you are hating on people for asking a question somewhere they can get a good answer (i.e. hn)
If you don’t have anything useful to add just jog on.
I'm not hating on anyone, fundamentally dishonest person.
P.S. I helped develop the ARPANET and my name is mentioned in RFC 57.
P.P.S. My comment included the Wikipedia link ... so much for having something useful to add ... I did, you apparently don't. The whole idea that asking HN--a form of social media with all of its problems--is asking experts but reading Wikipedia (not a "conventional communication channel")--written/curated/edited by experts isn't is completely nuts.

Quite.
Wikipedia link is fine. Condescending snark is not.
But you seem to be just “that kind of person” so maybe you just don’t really know you’re doing it and in your quieter moments wonder why your friends talk over you all the time.
