Who is that thin skinned? If you work hard on something, people inevitably shit on it. It's human nature. And someone as talented as this creator is probably used to it by now.
Besides, limiting conversation to just constructive criticism limits the scope of HN. This isn't a support group. It's a discussion forum. We should be free to criticize not only the implementation of a program, but the need to build it in the first place.
