I agree with the throwaway. You should drop it in favor of average person or something else that's neutral. People seeing us insult them will only hurt adoption. Plus, many of these people that dont know much about computers are smart in other fields or have other talents. We aren't all supposed to have same strengths. So it's double-insulting shen it's an intelligent, but non-technical, user we're talking about.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm here for the insights. Trying to court everyone just waters down the comments until HN is indistinguishable from reddit. I prefer apparent condescension and a thick skin over PC half-conversations and watered-down intelligence.
