I don’t want to be wildly unkind, so I’ll keep it to this: your limited experience here is not sufficient basis to prognosticate on an entire industry.

- noja 4y agoThat is wildly unkind though.

- teakettle42 4y agoNoting that the evidence is insufficient basis for the claim is not unkind.
- michaelmarkell 4y agoBut saying “I don’t want to be wildly unkind” implies that there is something about the author and their claim that is deserving of meanness. I think that is an unkind thing to say.
- teakettle42 4y agoThat’s a fair point. I thought the context of “unkind” was already clear from the grandparent comment: > This post makes very big claims based on a very basic application that doesn't seem to be much more than a few toggle buttons and a couple of animations thrown in, and some 'statistics' that don't appear to be based on any actual facts.
- zasdffaa 4y agoThat was quite unnecessary. I look for signs in posts of where the user is at and he said "I don't normally make bold claims but I think I'll stick with this one and maybe in 5-10 years I can fish out this blog post to see if I'm right or not" which is exactly the kind of thing that suggests a level of maturity (which = a willingness to be wrong and change one's mind and learn from experience) in the poster.
