I'm normally pretty good with your moderation. This one's a little vague. I worry that if I apply this uniformly, it'll effectively ban snark from my postings.
I'll do my best to honor your request, though.
Thanks for your openness here. You're welcome to email [email protected] if you want to discuss it further. Short answer is that snark in general doesn't break the HN guidelines (though it is deprecated!) but when directed personally it probably does.

totally using that in the future.
I work with someone who has an amazing ability to tell people they're wrong and make them feel good about themselves. You come out of gruelling code reviews feeling hyped and enthusiastic about refactoring your code. It's a skill I'm not very good at and one I want to learn. That's professionalism in action.
