More seriously, what frustrates me about HN is pervasive contempt for other humans. It's not just that many of them see no value in human craft; they actively cheer to push others into the wood chipper. Right now, this is especially common in threads about mathematics, blog-slop, etc.

Sure, there's no shortage of general asshattery on the internet, but we're talking about people building the future of tech. It's just cartoonish and I'm not sure it ends well?

Funny that they don't consider the job of commenting on HN obsolete, though...
