Hah, I don't mean to offend anyone, sorry.
I've just been getting increasingly annoyed with the content on HN. We have Slashdot/reddit for developer bitching, why do we need it here?
- StavrosK 14y agoYou mean HN is just for entrepreneur bitching? I'm a developer who runs a product, where can I bitch?
- jarcoal 14y agoYeah, I'm in the same spot as you. I don't think we need mindless bitching anywhere. I think the site would benefit if more people showed up wearing their business hat and left their developer hat somewhere else. I could be mistaken, but I thought that was the point of this forum in the first place.
- StavrosK 14y agoI don't understand the "developer" vs "entrepreneur" distinction. It sounds condescending and patronizing. The OP isn't complaining because he's a developer, he's complaining because he had a bad experience with the service. No matter which hat you wear, feedback is valuable. It updates my probability that I'll get screwed by PayPal a tiny bit higher.
