Well, that article also wasn't very good. The condescending attitude towards anyone who isn't an engineer is palatable, even to an engineer like me. The discussion on Reddit is mostly constructive in spite of this.

The suggestion that HN is somehow representative of "engineers" in general is just not true. While HN includes many people with all sorts of opinions, the average is quite biased, especially on topics like this.

Still plenty of time for you to weigh in there.

The lawyers came out of that one looking pretty good, to be honest...

What a bunch of condescending assholes in that thread! They don’t respect us at all. Fortunately the engineers control the RLHF of their replacement :)

r/patentlaw is closer to /r/CScareerquestions than anything else

I think it's true that patent lawyers don't give a shit what HNers think, but I don't think that stuff posted to reddit is a good benchmark either
