The HN crowd are mainly developers who feel that their opinion is strictly correct with no leeway; as per developer culture. If it's not Apple, Go or Rust; or some ten-story sandwich stack of cobbled together libraries, it's deemed trash. Don't you dare mention Java. But what do I know, I'm just a sysadmin after-all. Everything is full-cycle cynicism to me; tomorrow we will be bitching about SPA's again and praising some new reinvented library. Bring back ActiveX and JavaApplets. I'm sure I'll get some "deemed worthy" downvotes for this comment; and I think I need more tequila.
