The word has several meanings, and I took it to mean "frighteningly large" rather than any of the more negative ones. Perhaps not the best choice, but not overtly rude.
Heh. I've certainly been handed stuff I didn't like. It's always been easier to work through if I avoided anything that came off as emotional or insulting.
Could you please stop posting flamebait and unsubstantive comments to HN? Also, could you please stop creating accounts for every few comments you post? We ban accounts that do that. This is in the site guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.
You needn't use your real name, of course, but for HN to be a community, users need some identity for other users to relate to. Otherwise we may as well have no usernames and no community, and that would be a different kind of forum. https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme...
