It was a 250-word article; not sure a tl;dr is warranted. I certainly don't think it should be the top-voted comment.

- mattgreenrocks 15y agoYes, it is discouraging seeing willful ignorance (aka, tl;dr) voted up on HN. If people can't take the time to read the article, they shouldn't comment. Period.
- tjoff 15y agoWho said anything about commenting? I often enjoy a tl;dr because a tl;dr will, with more accuracy than the title, tell me whether the article is worth reading. And yes, I almost always check the comments before reading the article (but I always read the article before commenting).
- mattgreenrocks 15y agoOops, my fault.
