Not to question the authenticity of your comment but it feels handcrafted to piss off about 75% of HN (not me, necessarily!)

What is offensive about this? The fact that someone on HN went to Harvard?

[mmmpop]

Envy I'd guess? There are probably a lot of reasons that some people resent Ivy League grads, probably the whole "legacy" model. I get that, but I know plenty that were just talented and worked very hard to be there. Haters gonna hate!

Just an odd take to me. HN was started by a Harvard alum based on experiences in the Harvard Computer Society, so this should be the last place that's an issue...

I feel like a lot of people think of the worst type of legacy freeloader when they hear 'Harvard Grad', not that it's right.
