It is actually a pretty neutral and dry comment, which is not necessary a "jackassness". Also, this is not a one-to-one conversation, other people read these threads as well. So some of them, which are genuinely interested, could benefit from detailed answers.

>It is actually a pretty neutral and dry comment, which is not necessary a "jackassness". Not really convinced. Even something like "In what ways is this interesting? Can you explain?" would be way more neutral than the current one. If he was perplexed by something on the article he would ask more specific questions. As it stands, it's identical to tons of other dismissive comments that follow every announcement. It wants to imply the author is "too technical" for this, e.g "hmm, a yet another 3D engine just done on some new language this time? who cares" or "why is this on top of HN".
