this rings as very fake and/or blatantly self-promotional. I wish HN had less of this type of post. I feel like a certain percentage of HN posters have learned how to push enough of the buttons of the rest of you to make it a net win for them. just nauseating.
And now come the downvotes, because I know I am effectively "not allowed" to express this kind of opinion without penalty -- yet I don't care, let's burn it up.
- tastyface 10y agoSelf-promotional for what? I have no affiliation with any of the frameworks or apps I mentioned, and I'm getting exactly the kind of advice I was hoping for.
- lawik 10y agoI can understand someone thinking that this is a bait of some sort. I don't think it is a bait but it is sometimes hard to separate things that mirror common sentiments and feelings and things that are written to appeal to the stereotype around that common sentiment. I think most developers feel crap about their own creations and I think all creatives struggle when comparing themselves to their role models. There is always a more skilled fish I guess :)
- upstill 10y agoWell, that's one opinion--unique, judging by the other responses. Someone asking for help and insight is "fake", "self-promotional", "nauseating" and manipulative? And downvotes on such a judgement are somehow out of bounds? Dude. Take a pill. Get over yourself.
