Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and/or flamebait to HN? We're trying for something higher-quality than that on this site.

As you wish, I'll keep my opinion to myself.

The opinion itself and the unsubstantiveness/flamebait are orthogonal. If you'd like to present your opinion in a way that gives the reader information and teaches us something, you're more than welcome.

It does take a bit of getting used to, but trading the pleasures of the internet rant for curiosity, which requires more measured conversation, is worth it in the long run. Think of it as a global optimization of the forum, which involves letting go of local optima.
