Implying that Python FTW SUCKAS! ;) :D ;) would have been upvoted more than what you posted is IMHO quite insulting to HN posters. It has its up and downs, but overall HN is a bit more serious than Reddit & friends. Humour will only get voted up if it's somewhat original/clever.

(I realize--hope?--that everyone else has moved on from this thread.) "what you posted is IMHO quite insulting to HN posters" If it is insulting even with my comment just above that praising an article that itself criticizes the very kind of tribalistic behavior I was ironically exhibiting, then maybe more of those voting should have read the article itself and taken its message to heart.
