Hi, author here. Just want you to know that there's a human being with thoughts, feelings, hopes, etc. on the other side of that article. My experience in life isn't worthless. While it doesn't sound like it was valuable to you, I feel like it might be valuable to others in the same position. So if you have some constructive criticism on the writing - I'd be grateful - but if all you have is vitriol and lack of empathy, just move on.

Please don't call names in HN comments and please don't post shallow dismissals. We're trying for something different here.

Even if we assume you're right, a comment like this poisons the commons. What's worse, these toxins accumulate over time.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
