We shouldn't downvote for this reason. Some of us are on such a limited and remote internet connection that verbose HN comments are our only gateway to the article's knowledge.
Say what? If the page loaded enough for someone to know it was an awesome story, then they’d know how it was refueled if they read the article. That said, GP shouldn’t have said “if you read the article” that way (I’m guilty of it too though), it’s demeaning and is called out in the rules not to do it.
Agree with everything you said, but someone else described how they flew without landing. I appreciate this, because I specifically can't read the article :)
