I have to agree with the OC. I read this post, the reply post (https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2021/11/07/select/ https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2021/11/07/select/) and "The ONE" (https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2018/04/28/meta/ https://rachelbythebay.com/w/2018/04/28/meta/)
post and I too was struck by the passive aggressive/defensive tone.
To me it really clashed with the original post which concludes we need guidance/mentorship/reference points. Most of the comments in Hackernews are constructive or genuinely curious, don't just dismiss the author and instead provide things to learn.
For the author to then write a reply and dismiss all these comments as comments that are really saying "I am THE ONE. You only need to know me. I am better than all of you." is just plain rude and completely counter to their own point.
