- idlewords 11y agoYou're being kind of disingenuous. The announcement said that all evaluation would take place in open HN threads, but it didn't.
- cperciva 11y agoYou're right, they were more generous than the original announcement suggested. If I had been in Kevin's shoes I would have rejected pinboard based on the content of the thread rather than holding an ad-hoc phone interview to give you a chance to redeem yourself.
