He obviously meant the title of the HN post? Why not straight up say that the article title is different and avoid the passive aggressiveness.
I meant it that the poster, changed the original title, what is a kind of editorializing. I thought of calling on the mods to edit it back, but judged that would be a kind of... semi-passive aggressiveness.
could you explain this? the comment you're replying to, how is it passive-aggressive? seems more regular-aggressive to me.
