Are those words actually weighted with the assumption you are making, or are you just trying to feel better about 800 million people going hungry? The nuance between English words aren’t really apparent in poverty statistics. Because I doubt there was a survey where they all agreed it wasn’t enough, but just enough that aripickar doesn’t feel as bad about 800 million going hungry.
Had you spent time in the humanities, you would understand why your argument is fallacious. Science discovers, engineering creates, humanities decide.
Said like an ignorant man about a topic they nothing about.
What a useless world that would create.
Too nerdy isn’t valuable feedback, it’s derogatory.
How exactly?
Most of HN is shitting on popular things with a hot take and a smug condescending tone, usually erroneously. If Conical hadn’t tried new projects and failed, the poster would complain that they never innovate.
People complain like this because they have no real control of their own lives. It makes them feel smart, if only they were in control, then things would be better. It would be so easy, the people in charge must be stupid. It comes from a lack of experience and the inability to understand the challenges in those positions.
Oh, no, that’s what happens in YOUR mind.
Why exactly?
There are plenty of good reasons to start to read the article, not quite understand the usage, and come to the comments for clarification. I don’t assume, if I’m not following, that reading more will clear up the confusion. If those reasons exist, as they plausibly do, then how do you ensure you aren’t erroneous, and making an inaccessible community.
The opposing side to RTFM is for you to just “Answer the fucking question”. I don't have issue with people that didn’t read or understand, but I do have issue with your RTFA nonsense. What does this add? Far less value than a question that everyone seems to want to know...
It’s less the obscurity, and more that to a layman, you are saying in the title that modelling doesn't work, or it really doesn’t work. Understanding your audience and all that. Someone should write an article about it so we aren’t misrepresenting our point by trying to be clever and assume the layman understands that which has not been explained to them...
The headline really cuts off the points nose.
I own the hardware.
You can expect all you want, I expect you’ll be disappointed. The goal to keep the web in that languid state is of the same ilk of the buggy whip. It’ll have archaic use cases, but the numbers won’t make sense for a lot of if not most future endeavours.
They aren’t.
Accessibility isn’t being discussed here. All my sites are accessible, don’t conflate the two.
This isn’t mine, but the number of my users with js turned off isn’t worth the effort. You guys make a lot of noise, but not a lot of traffic.
I’m not a fan of asocial, it sounds passive, ambivalent. I’ll keep using anti-social for this, since anti-societal would be more apt for that concept.
