I am not a fan of the amount of time spent worrying about "low quality" posts on Hacker News, but I do believe this marks a new low. This is essentially a personal attack post, and adds nothing to the discussion.

It's intended to be satire, with a lot of focus on Zed's personality. As you may recall, this is the same mission statement as the now defunct ZSFA blog.

I'm sure Zed would approve...
