A Non-Programmer’s Apology

I thought HN was supposed to be a place where people are nice to each other and voice opinions on subjects that they know something about. So why has Thomas's snide and condescending post ending with him boasting that he hasn't read Hardy been voted up?

I really think you missed the point of my comment, Jon Pincus.

I enjoyed watching 'mahmud and 'delirium go at it over the merits of Hardy, but my comment wasn't judging him and didn't ask for that debate.

I don't know what the point of your comment was -- I'm not a mind reader. Words like "get over it" and saying that he was the zillionth person to say that sure sound judgmental to me. Plus, as you discovered after my comment, you hadn't even taken the time to notice that it was from 2006 and wouldn't have written it if you did.

And yet you still got voted up. Why do you think that is?
