If you've never taught students or mentored PhD students please refrain from diatribes in my comments (and yes I've done both)

The comment isn't a diatribe, and your experience as a teacher and advisor does not make your argument correct, let alone make your request any less a nonsequitur. If I disagree with you, I will always, I promise, say so. Asking that I 'please refrain' is just supercilious and silly.

It's also arguably a violation of Hacker News' guidelines:

> Please don't sneer

> Please don't post shallow dismissals
