- jon_kuperman 11y agoCreator here. Sorry if that wasn't clear! I only meant this to be inspiring for people to "keep trying" even when they face rejection!
- devsquid 11y agoYea its quite cute!(Not meant to be condescending) The site loads them in random order and I read about how someone was nervous during an interview and faults the interviewers and a few other more sour ones first. lol sorry.
- marshray 11y agoI've lived in the US my whole life and I don't accept this connotation. 'Rejection' is just rejection. Sometimes it's personal, sometimes it's not.
- devsquid 11y agolol I'm from the US and have lived here for most of my life. Its probably true in most cultures. Hacker news has a pretty international audience, so I try to tailor my generalizations to my own home country.
