When did Hacker News become a place to use profanity and trash ideas without providing any constructive input?
I haven't logged in for as long as I can remember. I did so just now to say how dissapointing the tone of this comment is.
- dchichkov 14y agoTrue. And the original commentator is plain wrong. There is certainly value in a working solution to gesture recognition problem.
- mehuln 14y agoThank you.
- tylermenezes 14y agoSeriously. The bash-everything mentality is bad - for the Hacker News community, but also for the startup community as a whole. No one is going to create anything new if they're afraid to try. Beyond that, I don't come to this site to read people insult everyone else. Can you imagine going to a developer meetup where everyone just walks around and criticizes everyone else? But somehow people think that sort of thing is okay online. As far as I'm concerned, people like this represent the worst form of hackers, and should not be welcome on this site.
- bratsche 14y agoYou know, you're totally right. Thanks for calling me out on this. I apologize to the OP (and everyone else) for my negative tone.
