Why do we need to know that this was made at all? Let the guy share a bit of context about his little side project (cool work btw!). Why are you so snarky today?
What's the point of your comment? Why do you care? Why do we need to know about this project at all? Why is anything posted to hackernews at all? Why?
Please discuss the project if it's interesting to you, otherwise move on. There is a human who posted the project. Maybe they were nervous to post because of the feedback they get. Maybe they wish it ran faster (as they noted on its slowness), and provided some context by stating they couldn't devote 100% focus to this project because they were caring for a new born baby.
