The fact that bad comments show up as dead is however a good indication that HN is coping with them well enough. As long as this pattern of voting down the worst comments remains the same, the commentary here should hold up fine.
- ErrantX 17y agoYes absolutely; but the mods can only do so much (I imagine) and a few do seem to be leaking in the gaps. A lot more comments are at -4 recently - mostly one line agreements and silly meme's (this is the stuff that used to be "dead") The problem is the commentary between there and the "good stuff". I contend that this has declined too (though I have no empirical evidence except my own opinion).
