I enjoyed reading the report back. The author laid it out clearly and informatively. However the dismissal of the top HN comment, appears unfounded. [1] It reads like a case of minimizing dissonance. In other words, it seems the author is attempting to rationalize away another person's viewpoint, by simply characterizing it as snark. Some more probable explanations why the comment made it to #1, could have been: - It felt authentic. "I've lived and built two companies in Thailand over the last 14 years." - The answer expressed a contrary viewpoint, giving HN readers a more balanced view of the topic.
