Learn C The Hard Way

I don't really understand your comment.

1. The post is about Zed's draft; is it really so far of a leap to interpret hp's remarks as a criticism of the book?

2. Is this a fair paraphrase? "Everyone here isn't attacking you, also, your draft sucks and shouldn't have been posted on HN."

I think hp is making more of a comment about the general state of C books rather than this one.

No, it's not. speckledjim is complaining that someone writing another book on C is not news, he doesn't say anything about the draft sucking.

Implied by "Really though, there's no content here." Maybe they meant the comments, though.

I think he's referring to this topic, rather than the draft.

1. I agree 2. He didn't post it someone else did, and no, I don't think it should have been posted.
