Basically they’re saying implicitly to be principled about adopting frameworks and other dependencies, evaluating whether they’re needed for one’s project before adopting them. It’s a pretty thought provoking post, even if it may be too subtle for some folks.

No need for the random snark? I mean, again, we're in extremely obvious territory here. Just doesn't seem appropriate for hacker news front-page (to me).

What makes their random snark any better than your original comment though? There was no need for you to come in and say that you don't see any value here. If you don't see any value here, just move on to the next post.

You don’t get to decide that, the people voting on HN do, they did and they disagree with you, just accept you can’t agree with a large set of people all the time.

Hmm, was only mildly snarky in my opinion

What about the trade off of being principled in the first place? I was much more principled back when I refused to use any programming language that wasn't based off of the lambda calculus, and I also got a lot less done as a result.
