Yup, I have written a book with Manning (Grokking Algorithms), which is why I commented about empathy towards authors.
- giardini 10y agoYour comment has caused me to review the Hacker News Guidelines and I find that I have violated no less than two, and now, possibly three, of the guidelines, in particular the following: "Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its 'flag' link. If you think a comment is egregious, click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click 'flag' at the top. (Not all users see flag links; there's a small karma threshold.)" " If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did. .... " Please resist commenting about being downvoted. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading." I apologize to all for these violations. Nonetheless I find the initial "chapter" of the aforementioned "book" to be void of significant content and await the full publication before spending any money.
