why do these elm hit pieces keep getting dug up and reposted? It's almost always in response to some other elm post (there was one yesterday). People use elm in production at quite a few companies without worrying too much about the concerns laid out in the article, but it feels like people seem almost fervent in their need to justify their reason for leaving elm and why other people shouldn't use elm.
Speaking as someone who despises Tailwind, my impression is certainly that HN generally likes it. It is amusing that somebody else gets quite a different impression. Shows how biased human memory can be.

This is called The Baader–Meinhof phenomenon, a belief that something happens far more often than it actually does.
HN can’t resist crapping on Elm and Tailwind. I wonder what the other popular hate topics are?
Tailwind? I must've missed that; I thought HN liked Tailwind for the most part.
