@kescher @himbeer More specifically: HN is almost entirely composed of the kind of rich privileged white tech dudes who can afford to turn any acute and real problem into some hypothetical thought experiment as if the answer doesn't matter and it's just a game. And they do. Constantly. About everything. Even on technical matters.
@kescher @himbeer And with "on technical matters" I mean stuff like HN folks rejecting real solutions to real software development problems because it somehow doesn't fit into their imaginary thought-experiment world, and they're envisioning non-existent problems being caused by it, apparently completely unaware that the solution already exists and it doesn't have any of those issues in practice.
It's literally the exact same broken reasoning and attitude applied to both social and technical issues, and even the evidently wrong conclusions in a technical context are apparently not enough to make them realize that they're going about it the wrong way... it's kind of a darkly impressive amount of tunnel vision, really.
