That is far from what I meant, and the suggestion that Rust is "salvation" is the stuff of infantile delusion. I'm a big fan of Rust, too, but it isn't going to be the "salvation".

  I would characterize about 1/3 of HN posts as infantile delusion. You just learn to tune it out and get to the adult posts more quickly. There are browser extensions to help with this, too.

    Ok, now you have got me. What extensions are those?

      I personally use Hacker News Enhancement Suite for Chrome and tag users whenever I find myself mentally rolling my eyes. Then when I'm reading a page with lots of comments and see the "SKIP" tag I collapse the thread.
