Stop pretending
- jfornear 18y agoSometimes I catch myself Getting Awesome when I work on things like open-source codebases, user interfaces, and relational databases. I wrote a book about it 5 years ago but I still blog about it in your faces.
- nuclear_eclipse 18y agoYou too, huh? I thought it was just me... Edit: people don't like sarcastic replies to sarcasm?
- iamdave 18y agoSarcasm doesn't parse well over text, and well I can't think of an effectually true way to say "HN loves the down button when humor is used to point out a painful truism" without getting downvoted myself. In any case, the truism in the sarcasm is there. I'm kind of getting tired of 37signals "do what we say because we had a strand of isolated success".

- jmtulloss 18y agoThat's why Java is such a beautiful system.
