I didn't consider my comment negative, nor am I hating on the writer. I was just expressing shock because I literally cannot understand the mindset of the backers in this case. On a sidenote: Even if I did want to be negative about the whole thing, that is my prerogative, there is no rule on HN "only be positive". The up / down arrows are on the left of my post if you think it has no value.
