> There is no harm in mentioning implementation languages in the bit at the end where you invite people to send patches

Okay, but... there's no harm in mentioning implementation languages in the title either?

If you don't care, that's fine, you can just ignore it.

To me, "built with [new technology]" is a sign that the person who made it had fun, and is proud of their work. It's like an engineer posting "look at our new car prototype, built with [fancy new internal chassis technology]". Maybe it doesn't change anything for the person driving, but it's obviously of interest for the engineer, and potentially for other car-internals-geeks as well.

That is exactly the point: pride in having succeeded at doing X using Y is not informative. It is an indulgence. "I graduated from Harvard" may be interesting to your Mom and, maybe, strangers still at Harvard, but not to us, and would be unwelcome on the HN dashboard.

If you published a thesis, that thesis topic could be interesting, but not that Harvard accepted it, unless they shouldn't have.
