I understand its a marketing term. But context matters and when its done with the tech bro chuckle/stammer and wink....its an innuendo...

I mean..tone matters here. Look at how its stated.

I felt while watching the full video (before I saw this one, so I knew the entire tone and context from where this clip came from), that this particular segment had an appropriate tone, felt professional, and I just didn't feel like anything said by Luke leading up to the last two words was out of line. And when he dropped the "six nines" SLA and seemed to be "playing it cool" while doing so, my only thought was "Oh, I know what he's referring to, they're setting a high goal for HA just like other major companies out there. Nice." That was just the way it hit me personally. If others want to read into it further, well, they will I guess.

nice... Now it's obvious you're trolling.

Trolling? I'm just saying how I personally felt while watching the segment, with reasoning included, and I even said others can read into it how they will, without any judgement one way or another towards those people no matter how they decide to interpret it. I'm not even trying to defend the segment itself, I'm just sharing what I think about it and how it didn't hit me the same way as others who took offense. That's trolling? If having an opinion or a viewpoint that differs from yours is trolling, and remaining open to the idea that others may not share my way of seeing it and being totally accepting of that without any kind of stake in the greater matter, then count me in as a troll. Absolutely I'd be proud to be one in that case.
