It is entirely reasonable, but these kind of comments are essentially wishing sites could cater to their knowledge level.
It's like complaining that the article is not written in French. It's noise in the comment section of an article. If someone wants such a thing, browsers have functionality to translate pages to French. Not every site needs to have their own French translation to suit such a person.
I understand what you're getting at, but in this case even I (who know what most things on that page means) struggle to understand why it was submitted. Are we looking for the 0E opcode? New optimization opportunities?
Genuinely asking, for this post did you click on the link and say "yeah, I got the point" or did you involve an LLM? If you did, what did you ask it? I'm asking because I want to get better at LLM use (Another example post (and prompt) where you've used this, that's also fine)!
I didn't initially use an LLM, but when drafting my original post I did double check that Grok was able to explain it to ensure I want demanding the impossible.
In this case the person was not asking anything. The person was stating they didn't understand. The equivalent in my analogy is a French speaker commenting that they don't understand English without further translation into French.
Geez. I was the first one to comment. It was "This may be great, but... would you please give us more explanations / context." It's not "laziness" but trying to understand how this table is useful / teaches us something. And, to the OP, that a 'typical' HN reader didn't get it.
I know 8008, 8080, z80, 80186, 80286, 80386, 80486, and some fancy opcodes for SSEx. The table still, IMHO, needs further explanation. Some have provided pointers to more info; thank you.
