OP could be a lot of things, however, I'm going to go with OP being "likely employable in the future" due to having a PhD and being currently employed with a near-Google salary. Don't be an asshole.

So, in earnest, I don't see what the parent comment said that deserves them to be called an asshole. I actually see you calling them an asshole as much more rude than anything they said. I figure there's some social implication that I'm missing. Would you mind breaking down the thought process for your reply?

  Not GP, but the "as well" in that comment could be seen to imply that GP is a mediocre engineer, and OP is as well.

    That sentence is grammatically incorrect. But even if meaning this, calling him an a-hole is a bit harsh, especially for HN.
