A comment on Make Something Nobody Wants.
Originally I didn't want to post it here because I hardly ever post anything on HN and guess no one would read it.
But the feelings were strong and I really wanted to tell people what I was feeling.
After I posted it on HN that day, it sunk quickly, and sure enough no one read it, so I didn't go back to HN to check on it.
Until this evening, when I got a text from a stranger saying thank you for the post. I was surprised and opened HN to find it was at the top.
Thank you all for reading it.
In a way I put this article into practice, I put my emotions in my product (article) and you extracted from it.
