I cannot fathom how this comment can be so downvoted. Snarky remarks do hurt, and pointing that out is necessary. Placing the duty to be charitable on the receiver is one of the primary failure modes of communication. I do understand that both LW and programmers draw an above average amount of their demographics from non-NT people, but rejecting the reality of emotions in the majority (even in the programmers group) will not improve anyone's experiences.
I am having some trouble seeing my responses to a post after refreshing an article (but they still show up in the right-hand sidebar). Anyone else having this problem? I am using Firefox 16.0.2. Is this a bug or a "feature" (I think some of us are all too aware of the sometimes blurry distinction...)?
