- you are also a part of the problem are you not? - you are writing a post on your blog and sharing it on HN? - what is your objective? traffic? email? newsletter signups? eventually sell some course to them? - it is always easy to point fingers at someone with a bigger budget

Is Gareth the cat in the picture at the top? Is the cat writing the blog post? I agree with the sentiment of the article but it doesn't have a solution. Everyone has to hustle to make it work.

Thanks Gareth - we all want and need attention, some more than others. But yes, it would be nice if good manners could be folded in more often.
