There were others that gave different reasons, but none that made any sense of the "OMG six pages of instructions! Horrible!"
- wizzwizz4 6y agoMaybe you didn't understand because you're focusing on a bit that the original comment didn't emphasise. The complaint is not about six pages of instructions. The complaint is about combining education with manipulation. Imagine a handy guide from your bank that included instructions for how to wire money to its author.
- SilasX 6y agoYes, I suggested that as a meaning of what the OP meant, very early on, and it was rejected. Second paragraph of response: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26265969 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26265969
- wizzwizz4 6y agoCould you explain that comment of yours, please? I don't understand how it's saying what you claim it's saying.

- dang 6y agoCan you please stop? I know these tit-for-tat exchanges are hard to pull away from but they're exceptionally tedious, and not what HN is supposed to be for. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
