Ahh, I have been trolled. HN needs a specific report button, even for young accounts, because duh, this post.

Uhh.. congrats on making a website? I mean, if you are a real poster and are the age of the people on your site, kudos on making a public site. But I'm sorry, I don't feel this deserves posting on HN. I'm feeling trolled right now.

I actually appreciate it, it seemed a little too curated for placeholders :p

Can't say, but it actually seems pretty forced, like a joke. All of those placeholders actually link to the resources they'd want. I'd guess it's a poke at regular start-up style "We are awesome because X" statements on their home page.

...but it continues to apply to less than the entire human base that generally browse the Internet. Seems like it makes interactive graphics attainable to people who were already able to, just making their effort to achieve it less.

This. I work at a University where accessibility is a major issue when developing public-facing web apps. Any library/practice we adopt comes with a decent dose of "Will someone (minor sight issues all the way to blind) be able to use this? Someone with (minor hearing issues all the way to deaf)?" This seems promoted as a learning tool... just wouldn't fly in my department.

I get this, I really do. I wish I could dump the Internet for some of my home life. But unfortunately my home life is polluted by work. I'm a web developer who maintains an entity with multiple domains. One of them is a 24/7 uptime service. So I'd love to follow this advice, but I don't think it is applicable to many viewers at HN, as many of us need to follow our job.

What good advice would any viewer give to a life I just described? How could anyone (I) separate the Internet from a home life when being off that grid for a weekend could cause catastrophic failure without the dev leader their to fix it?
