why do these comments pop up on HN all the time? why is it so critical that we get feedback from haughty readers? this is basically a tldr dismissal. how is that "curious" or "good faith" or whatever it is that HN bills itself as? if you think the article isn't high quality then just downvote. instead these comments become rallying points for people to have their biases reaffirmed.

- anon_tor_12345 6y agonote i didn't weigh in on the content anywhere. i'm simply sick of seeing people proudly proclaim their own impatience. we get it your time is too precious to read the entire thing (but not too precious that you can't drop a comment).
- commandlinefan 6y agoWell, I felt the same way as OP and came to the comments to see if it was just me. I appreciated finding out it wasn't.
