This is the kind of content that could've been at LinkedIn for /r/LinkedInLunatics to drool over. The only thing that's missing is the vertical line spacing.

Why is this on top of HN? "Mind blown, I just learned about the concept of treating people nicely regardless of their job"?



I don't know; the article is hardly self-aggrandizing (which is the primary attribute I see on /r/LinkedInLunatics), and certainly some of us could appreciate the reminder, myself included. Do we really have to be all intellectual, all the time on HN?


> Do we really have to be all intellectual, all the time on HN?

Actually why not? We have a lot of "just to evoke emotions" social media platforms out there.


I suspect most of HN doesn't use those


Definitely. Probably for a reason.

I don't see anything wrong with the post. Treating nicely can surely be extended to its author as well.


I agree, treat OP nicely. Also, I'll use this opportunity to quote the great philosopher Scooter "It's nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice!"
