First of all, I was on a public transport when I click on that link, my 'consuming' experience already not optimal from the point of view of readership. Many technical people, like I do, are busy people with short tolerance on things that detract from what I'm supposed to read or comprehend. Unless I can just read right there right away, I'm just going to skip to the next tab.

Secondly, I noticed that this is a trend right now; where you get to a page and after a few seconds a dialog just thrown into your face with little disregard to you (the reader) is trying to concentrate to read the content. To me that is rude, you don't go to a bookstore while reading the table of content a salesman grab that book from you and tell you "would you like me to take your email address so that we can notify you when we have new books available?" without wondering what kind of establishment that allow this kind of behavior.

Third, I got the link from HN it was easier for me to go back to this tab, login, hit reply than registering a disqus account and then enter a comment there.

With that said, I dont want to blog about this on Medium or whatever, I dont need clicks by moaning about every little things, this is my way of protesting on what I perceive is happening right now and that's why I start with "small nitpicking".

Small nitpicking here, but the moment it popup a modal dialog asking me to enter my email for some kind of subscription I simply close the tab. I do this since three months ago for any unknown website I visit.

Such nuisance for what might be a good read.

thank you, I'll look into it as soon as I can :)

Was looking at RPC framework for a project, in the end I went with Apache Thrift since at that time there was no Python 3 support for gRPC [1]. IIRC Thrift also lacks support for my project's Python version (3.5) but at least I can use thriftpy [2].
