I'd recommend people gloating to read the article.
This is a neat way to parallelize and scale up this swipe but it's still the same swipe:
Please don't comment on whether someone read an article. "Did you even read the article? It mentions that" can be shortened to "The article mentions that."

- maxwell86 4y agoThanks. I've added an EDIT to clarify that I am not speculating about whether the OP read the article, and that the only point of my comment is to set the record straight for those who often just come to HN for the comments (like myself).
- pvg 4y agoJust take it out. You don't know who has and hasn't read the article, how much they are 'gloating' and it's one of the oldest known bad tropes of internet forums which is why it's in the guidelines. Your comment only gets better without it.
