It's very frustrating that whenever a team is showing something new they've built to HN, so many of the top comments are focused some incredibly nitpicky, personal issue that somehow negates everything else about the project.

It's an amazingly lazy and inconsiderate way to respond to people who've put a bunch of effort into building something.



It's at least partially a programmer thing, basically bikeshedding. Just imagine doing a code review with some of these commenters!


Agreed ! Usually when you look at these "haters" there is nothing of value in their "submission" sections under their profiles, which usually tells me exactly how to "read" the comment(insult).
