This is a great article. How it ended up on HN I don't know, but can somebody please start submitting more like this, and fewer techno-babble thinkpieces by junior javascript contractors who host their own mail?
- plutokras 3y agoIm sure there is a subbreddit for things like this. Im here for the tech stuff.

- latentcall 3y agoAgree, found this really moving and thought provoking.
- lostmsu 3y agoThe only thing you should be moving is her furniture. The only thought it provokes from me is disgust for a person who's stupid decisions end up on my own shoulders and shoulders of my kids. What she does is endemic in US and nothing good will come from promoting this.
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoI agree this was a great article. The "techno-babble thinkpieces by junior javascript contractors who host their own mail" was annoying, unnecessary snark, that also is basically not true. I have rarely, if ever, seen uninteresting "JS technobabble" bubble to the top of the front page.
- milesvp 3y agoI see you’ve been on hacker news for about as long as I have. Used to be content like this would pop up more often on weekends for some reason. I too appreciate anything this thought provoking.
- cipheredStones 3y agoNotably, it got downranked pretty hard: it's currently in spot 49, after getting almost 300 votes in two hours. (I agree with the sibling comment that the snark was unnecessary, though.)
- techtalsky 3y agoAt the same time, Reddit exists, and this is a community of people created by a VC company explicitly to have wonky tech discussions with other professionals called "Hacker News". It's fine every once in a while but I don't want this to be filled with generic human interest stories.
