I see, he's a Guru, is he, to whom we all must genuflect?
Han from China is indeed a guru, though I'd leave the genuflecting to
Heathfield and his christian friends.
He brought his brilliant insight to bear on the hypocrisy of the clc
"regulars", and specialized in puncturing their puffed-up pride and
arrogance and pomposity. He was also willing and able to take them on at
their own game: his knowledge of the C standard was so thorough that he
frequently pointed out errors in the absurd pedantry of Thompson,
Heathfield, Sossman and the rest.
Of course, most people don't like it when other people point out their
mistakes and misunderstandings, so for this reason Han was despised by a
section of the "regulars". Suddenly, a pedantic discussion of the finer
points of the ISO standard became "trolling": such are the desperate
writhings of people who've lost even after they rigged the rules in
their favor.
Sadly, he hasn't posted for a while. Let's hope he'll return to bring
fresh life to this increasingly moribund group. But he will live on as a
legend in the memories of those who follow clc.
