TL;DR:

HR at some no-name start-up gets it into their head that some kid can make all their programming dreams come true. They made a blog post to lure him.

Later, HR at some other no-name startup makes a blog post proudly announcing that the kid in question applied there first, also making some annoying backhanded compliments about how their standards were too high or some lame shit.

What next? Nothing at all.

Not only do I hate TL;DR meme (I don't believe it fits the community at HN), but that isn't even an accurate summary of the article or the situation.

Agreed. I thought the parent was ill served by editing the post and moderating the language, which for me more accurately described how I felt about the article and situation.

Obsequious omphaloskepsis.
