I even tried emailing tptacek to try and be part of the change he said he wanted to see. Crickets. HN folk can be a bit hypersensitive and / or opaque at times. Text medium is not always ideal as it provides no signals for tone, and our brains backfill this information in a biased manner.

You emailed me less than an hour ago (I found out about it here, just now) and then tried to dunk on me for not replying. I think we can save ourselves some time and disengage.

  Respond to my skywriting on the subject of error-handling, you coward! That plane was expensive and my opinions are important!

    If I'd seen the skywriting before you complained, I would have! I like getting email--- err, skywriting messages! But I only check the, uh, sky a couple times a day!

      That's reasonable. My bad.
