This type of useless comment is why I tend to avoid HN for periods at a time. Congrats, you've shown the world you know what "isomorphic" and "FSA" means, but did you initially bring anything constructive? No. You had to edit in things barely constructive because your impulse was to tear down rather than build up.

This is the least helpful thing I can imagine. "Here's a beautiful regex visualizier" "LOL NO IT'S NOT". Geez.

I'd agree if this were the top two comments without many disagreeing replies or down-votes. I see this comment in down-voted grey, somewhere way down the page and assume a lack of social skills, bad-morning-before-coffee-grumps. Or simply Internet Asshat Background Radiation, it's everywhere. Legends say you can trace its echos back to the First Flame from which the Internet was born.
