We're all here specifically because we enjoy thinking about the tools we use.

It's like telling an artist not to paint a picture because they won't ever be able to capture the scene they want in the right way, or telling a student to they shouldn't bother trying their homework because they won't get every question right.)

Dang, there is nothing negative about being critical. The user I responded to clearly has childish ways of motivating himself. Being critical helps him analyze the flaws in how he motivates himself.

Hacker news is degrading quickly and you blocking me is helping that. This site needs inter-user critical comments. I doubt you have the insight to see that yourself and you're probably just following implied orders from Sam and Paul. This site is facing a leadership vacuum in this crisis and will likely implode. Good job.
