Well said. Detractors specifically whinging about the tone and appeal of the piece are exactly who the piece is criticizing.
They want to be catered to. To have their hype built up. Negatives must not be allowed in their worldview, and if reality has negatives then to hell with reality.
It’s bleak, as the author so eloquently describes.
- johnfn 1y agoYou really are saying, on Hacker News, that "negatives must not be allowed?" Hacker News, probably the most negative news site on the Internet, the place that hates everything, the place where the Dropbox 'Show HN' post got dismissive comments about how it could be done trivially? That's the place you're saying that negatives can't be allowed? You think that's more likely than that this is just a bad article?
