So maybe the importance of Nuuton is lost on me, but I'm going to be honest with you: That is not something I'd feel even remotely confident posting to HN for comments. You are wasting peoples time when you should still be wasting/using a l

I've heard similar points made before and while I can concede that they are at least somewhat coherent - or "not impossible" - they are almost always riddled with bad grammar and every other sentence is an affront to any sense of compassi

I actually pondered making that into an AskHN discussion after writing my reply - proposing to add "sarcasm" and "joke" tags more readily, but it occurred to me that this is precisely how it should be and how people like it. It's a kind of
