Glad someone else noticed that.

I’m going to sound like an ass, but is this the sort of crap we’re going to see published in 10yr when all these crypto folk grow up a bit and start reflecting on their “glorious revolution”?

At least the Beanie Baby people realized it was ridiculous.

I guess the better comparison is dotcom folks, and they were pretty insufferable for quite a while

Can you please not do this here? That is, not fulminate and not cross into personal attack in HN comments?

I realize that this kind of remark is better-intentioned than it comes across on the internet. In personal conversation it can be just another way of chatting and making sense of the world. Tone of voice can do a lot to modulate pejoratives.

But in an online forum like HN it degrades and makes conversation more shallow, and tends to evoke worse from others, leading to downward-spiral-mode, which we're really trying to avoid here.

		That is a fair criticism. I’m letting my frustration with longer-term behaviors in social media influence my comments, and this is an inappropriate forum. I appreciate the correction.
