Accusations of flamebait and similar on HN are a form of censorship, to prevent the community from having to confront difficult issues and “keep the peace” — not legitimate regulation of tone.
that's the feeling I sometimes get. Let's all go back and discuss microservices and virtualization and keep pretending technology is neutral. Because if we were actually to confront these issues we might actually get somewhere.
I have said shit before that I regretted and where I have rightly been put in place. The above comment isn't one of them though. Also I'm not a robot so maybe feeling something when I read this scoop is my own fault. idk
