Why do I keep seeing this style of comment on HN lately? Someone expresses an opinion about software architecture and someone begins their response “obviously you have zero experience working in this domain...”
It’s such an insulting way to start a conversation. And quite often a false assertion.
- bm1362 9y agoIt seems like it’s becoming more and more toxic. It’s a place to get your product or project criticized and reduced to the sum of its parts, rather than support.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoWell, criticism and reduction are both constructive though. Baseless assertions about someone’s experience are just bullying rhetorical flourishes.
