- dang 10y agoWe don't moderate articles because of silly gossip about pg or anyone else.
- codybrown 10y agoI'm the author of this post. what about this is gossip?
- dang 10y agoWho unfollowed whom on Twitter is gossip. My point is that HN moderators (I'm one of them btw) didn't moderate this article, and would never do so merely because someone said a thing about pg (which is what the comment upthread seemed to me to imply).
- thatcat 10y agoIt was from the article, guess you consider quoting the primary source of the article that was posted to be 'gossip'
- dang 10y agoOh yes, I know (and I'm not sure I'm reading your comments correctly) but the point is that the presence of that statement in the article doesn't affect its moderation status on HN.
