So what you're saying is that what you wrote is correct and you should be trusted because... of what? Given your nickname and attitude, how does one not conclude you're here to just be negative because you can?

Could you explain how's that related to 51 ideas that are listed on the link? I'm struggling to see the connection you are seeing, can you clarify? Are the ideas mentioned worth less because you found a potential way to discredit

Why do you ask? Does it bother you or you want to signal how astute about HN you are?

I asked for numbers, which you don't have. Had you read what's written, you'd see it. That would convince anyone, and does not require me to trust a random stranger with ego issues. Self-proclaimed professional like you shoul

You can assure me with the might of 1000 exploding suns, but it STILL means nothing. I'm not insinuating that those unknown entities that only you know of are using the tool wrong. I'm literally claiming that they are because bein

So what you're saying is that it's important to talk about the _tool_ used to build the look and feel of project being under discussion, not the project itself? And you managed to get all of that from the title. Interesting.

> Using it wrong on every codebase that wasn't even made by me but instead by my employers? If it's happening that many times, the tool is to blame. There is no number here, you are basing this on your own experience and withou

It doesn't become a mess, but it's interesting you chose to comment on Tailwind and not KonstaUI despite topic being KonstaUI. Do you have any opinion to share on KonstaUI or any other helpful insight, except giving yourself credi

The siren song of cancel culture is impossible to resist. Imagine had you written that the employees were entitled or that they found out how capitalism and concept of ownership worked, the audacity! I wonder how hard the downvoters invest

Why wouldn't I imagine first that there exists a mastermind capable of weaving order out of chaos using divine ability granted to them by the Excalibur Fairy after praying at the Stonehenge? The story you're portraying doesn'

There was no advice. There was no mention on compensation. There was no mention of the revenue model of the 1st person. You came up with a narrative and argued with me based on story and arguments you made up. It's just silly and not r

Have you heard of strawman argument? Look it up. You're worked up and are taking it out on me because you created the narrative in which it appears I'm sending some kind of subliminal messages about corporate loyalty. You've

Thank you for the polite insults. I hope you feel good after this wonderful display towards a stranger online. The education you provided is invaluable. Your moral compass is high and you defeated me and defended an entire generation of peo

In the story I posted, there's an expert who's diligent, disciplined and aware of the area his expertise is valuable. The other one has none of that. First one never worked for FAANG, the other one aimed only for that level. One l

I'm sorry, but if I implied anything about loyalty then I apologize. I don't think loyalty or trust are needed in an environment where all parties adhere to agreement(s) and have the process that lets everyone win.

I know two devs. One changed 3 jobs in his whole career of 20 years and was genuinely interested in what he does, for whom he does it, which tools he uses and how to understand better the technology that's needed to achieve the goal.

Bitcoin as practised is a Ponzi scheme (I say it's valued $5 and if you want to join my cool buddies you need to pay $5 and we paid $0, the next person needs to pay $10 and so on and the value disappears if we don't get new people

Crypto allowed regular mortals to conduct the state-level scam that was exclusive only to governments. I can understand the appeal, but I do find it amusing how we (humans) instantly abuse anything if modicum of abuse is possible :)

by zmxz 4y ago
Alright, because of the unknown number of users that use it and don't speculate - we'll keep the Ponzi scheme going, ignoring the damage and abuse caused so far. Is that good enough solution or?
