Fix typo

| Feb 11, 2021 at 20:23 | comment | added | John Dallman | @manassehkatz-Moving2Codidact: Added, but a pointer to the documentation you found would help me improve the answer. The MP/M II Programmer's Reference mentions sub-processes once, and has a "thread" field in some data structures, but has no more information. | |

And I do appreciate reading reasons for downvotes. Still, I do think that downvotes are not meant for to disagree, but only to mark serious wrong/false stuff. Everything else can be handeled by comments - and don't get me wrong, When there is a way to upvote, there as well needs one for downvote - still, the downvote needs way more responsible handling than a twitter style like button. | |

| Feb 11, 2021 at 19:34 | comment | added | Raffzahn | @manassehkatz-Moving2Codidact I would think a downvote is only useful if a question or answer is straight wrong - or simply spamish crap. To my reading ("seems to have been") this doesn't sound like an absolute claim - but then again, I'm not native English - so not false. Beside the basically fruitless nature of all 'first' discussion, isn't it typical for many RC.SE questions that answers coming up always add new views, like new firsts? I don't think that to make all previous answers bad ones. But given, I hesitate a lot before any downvote - I rather simply ignore less than good answers. | |
| Feb 11, 2021 at 19:09 | comment | added | Raffzahn | @manassehkatz-Moving2Codidact How can an Answer offering valid information be 'not useful', as required for a downvote? The information presented is true and thus quite useful, won't you agree? If you know an earlier occurrence than John, why not adding it in your own answer. No need to downvote (Also, thanks f(serious) or being open about that). | |
