Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I am also a terminal parentheticalist - it’s something you frequently get with NDs fwiw (Not that I know whether the other commenter is (but I most certainly am (and thus thought of as mention as to where it often happens)))

(Okay that’s a mildly unnecessary example but demonstrates what I meant either way)

I definitely get the impulse! When there are a lot of them though, I feel like I spend as much time trying to understand the structure of the paragraph as I do reading it.

"impulse" strikes me as an odd word choice - this is literally how I (and as I observed, other NDs too) communicate

that said, I'm stopping here
