Unfortunately, that's pretty typical of HN nowadays. High up in the HN rules are "Be kind" and "Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work," but I don't know that everyone reads the rules or cares much beyond proving they are better than the submitter :/ not sure how the community can get better about this.
I'm still surprised that there'd be an element of uncertainty. Wouldn't you want to be sure that your code would pass before pushing it out for others to see? What if you pushed and the CI gave you a red X, wouldn't you then feel bad when your coworkers see that and think you are a poor coder? Seems to me it'd be best to be absolutely sure everything would pass before letting anyone else read the code...
