To be fair to the original commenter I believe they were making a Mean Girls (2004) reference. The line in question is "Stop trying to make fetch happen. It's not going to happen.". Likely just a funny quip and nothing serious :)
- bmulholland 3y agoYes, and that’s actually the problem with the comment. HN guidelines are for substantive discussions, not funny quips. There’s a few HN comment guidelines [1] that could apply here, but the most directly applicable one is “Omit internet tropes.” [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- coldtea 3y agoIt's both a throwaway quip, and a real sentiment: I think that Deno is not getting any traction, surely not the intended traction expected when it was created (and by Node's creator no less), and it will just keep hanging on in the fringe. Besides, it wouldn't hurt HN to loosen up a little once in a while. You know, obsessive total adherence to rules is never a good thing - even to the law.
- hitekker 3y agoIf the original comment was funny，I wouldn’t have downvoted. But it’s just low effort, extremely online snark.
