Only Bernhard knows exactly what he means. But when I read, for example, a statement like
BBauer wrote:You want to create a 3300+ elo engine. Most of them have only achieved a 2800+ engine. How can they help you?
I see it as sarcastic. I think Bernhard is trying to tell you to be grateful for advice from any chess programmer, even if his program is not of world-class strength. I believe Bernhard is suggesting to you that the correct answer to "How can they help you?" is "Very much."

I think that as you get older, you will become better at detecting sarcasm. (Or at imagining it is present when it isn't, in case that is what I am guilty of.)
Whatever you take its meaning, it is both ways great. :)
