This is such a ridiculous, asinine, and outright wrong assertion that it warrants no reasoned response.

In that case please follow the site guidelines, which ask you not to reply.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29023822 also broke the site guidelines. That's not cool, regardless of how bad other comments are or you feel they are.

Would you please review them and take the intended spirit of this place more to heart? We'd appreciate it.

I'm fairly sure the post you're replying you was interpretative-facetious.

I got that, it was directed towards the engineers who act this way. I've met too many of them as well.
