Indeed, HN is a place for gratifying intellectual curiosity. If you feel a submission (or comment, for that matter) is inappropriate for HN, please flag or down-vote it and move on. We all play a role in curating HN. Writing excessively negative comments (or comments written in an excessively negative way) lead to a worsening of discussion.
- jessriedel 9y ago"Excessively negative comments"? I don't know what you mean by that. Content-wise, criticism is just as valid as agreement. Tone-wise, yes everything should be civil and friendly, but khazhoux's tone was fine. You can't downvote submissions, and the post wasn't flag worthy (i.e., spam or off-topic).
