A great developer is an efficient developer. An efficient developer is lazy by habit. It's a sign of a developer focusing on the core of their problem.
It is insane that this thread got downvotes. WTF guys, it's just a Joke-website. That comment seems like a joke about it.
I don't understand why it got downvotes.
Edit: typo
Hey, I see you are new here. Don't take the downvotes personally, it's just that Hacker News users prefer to keep conversations focused. Thus, the following types of comment tend to get downvoted somewhat quickly:
* simply (dis)agreeing (there are up/downvote buttons for that)
* condescendence, insults, etc.
This is very different from Reddit where numerous threads end up littered with jokes and puns. On the other hand the following types of comments tend to get upvoted:
* insightful and well structured (as in: cut in several paragraphes)
* food for thought
* counter-point (politely worded, obviously)
* sourced
----------------------------------------
Your first comment was probably mostly perceived as a joke:
* “ROFL” just expresses your personal reaction to previous information, and the common use of this acronym usually signals a low quality comment
* “Bootstrap has become a sign of a lazy developer”: this reads as both condescending (“lazy developer”) and unsupported; a more constructed argument with the same idea would have been fine
Your second comment contains the word "downvote", which is often enough to get downvotes.

Ok, bootstrap (as well as jquery) has become a sign of lazy AND inefficient developer.
Inefficient according to whom? Money or CPU cycles or being able to get someone to enhance it later on?
