I notice this a lot. When I wrote a blog post about the Remarkable 2 recently and it ended up on HN, very few of the comments were about my article - instead they were all about other people's thoughts on the Remarkable. This is ok, of course, but it's interesting to me that this is often how it goes on here. I wonder if it's high levels of self-absorption in HN readers or just a more widespread thing online where people respond to headlines rather than in-depth articles.
People don't care about the love story just say how to lose weight haha
I can see why she left him...
I agree. It doesn't matter that it's his regretful private thoughts. I'm not a therapist, but that email is an artifact of a bigger mental health issue that is expressed in other ways. Narcissism? At least that!
If someone were like this all of the time? Sure. But that isn’t what this is about so I find it unfair to treat it as if this is some innate character flaw.
