Unfortunately I was turned off by the angry and obnoxious tone. Seems to be getting more common to get traction on HN homepage. But yeah, even though author makes some good points, the argument loses effectiveness in my book because of things like calling people amateurs.
- mikestew 7y agoThe angry, pissed-off coder rant is occasionally pulled off well, but in general it grew tiresome for me fifteen years ago. Not everyone is Hunter S Thompson (well, no one is, now), and not every technical annoyance is the Kentucky Derby and thus worthy of such treatment. To this day, I’ll still forgive a well-crafted MongoDB rant, though.
