You literally said they should do something.

Yes exactly. I stand by that advice. What’s the alternative? Do nothing?

So you advise that they do not need to change their approach at all, since they’re already doing something: posting on hacker news.

Ok, so comments like this are helpful then?

Yes, by explaining to you why yours was bad and hopefully preventing future such comments.
