This post sounds like an intentional, targeted probe to harvest sentiment and feed it as input somewhere.

I can't image you'd get a relevant assertion from a hundred (optimistic) replies from a random Hackernews thread.

I can imagine getting one in this thread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45306539 although maybe it's not so random.

Oh, you mean targeted against individual users? That'd be dark - and exactly why I created a burner acc for this.

I thought you were talking about some general sentiment in the tech space (for example). For this the sample size cannot be significant enough from this little replies. That's what my point was about.

I mean it was intentional and targeted. I know some of the smartest people frequent HN and it's one of the few places left to have a productive conversation. I'm definitely taking this input to refine my worldview, not farming though.
