I'm sorry you had some bad experiences, but please stop posting repeatedly about this to HN. It's not helping, and the repetition lowers the signal/noise ratio.

I was sitting at that table during that conversation. I'm sorry to hear that Leondro's experience was not a good one, but he does not speak for everyone that was there, he may have felt uncomfortable but he cannot speak for the others.

To paint a whole community based on those interactions is completely unwarranted. There are political issues within the Racket community as there are within any community, but they are not the ones described here.

In point of fact, because of attitudes like the one expressed by the parent certain extremely valuable, active, and long standing members of the community have ceased to participate publicly because of abuse they have received by, shall we say, new incoming "waux" participants.

Seriously, do you have an email alert to come shit on racket with the same comment on HN with a new username every time? :-D

You must have had a really, really bad experience.

Nice catch, this person really has a beef with the Racket community [0]
