It violates HN guidelines [0]:
> Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
> Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.
> When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names.
It's okay to disagree with someone, but saying their comments are hypocritical and that they're throwing a fit is not okay.

- yazzku 4y agoThat's all fantastic, but this guy actually has a point. Software quality at large is pathetic, anybody who uses technology knows this, and especially those who develop it for a living. The lack of regulation plays a big role in this. The field can barely call itself engineering. Yet the guy's comment also just happens to make the fanboys uncomfortable, so he gets immediately down-voted (didn't even last two minutes). On the other hand, look at that motherfucker up there who dismissed my comment saying that all I do is type too fast. Now that is clearly against the guidelines, yet no down-votes? Fascists, too, are very good at applying double standards.
