Limiting to "people with 500+ or karma" doesn't make for a reasonable discussion unless you like an echo chamber with 100% pure San Francisco values.

- douche 10y agoSubmitting about three, maybe four, good frontpage-worthy technical stories can net you 500 karma.
- dragonwriter 10y agoThere's no reasonable definition of "pure San Francisco values" for which that would be true even with a 20K karma threshold. HN certainly isn't a representative sample of the (global or US) population, ideologically speaking, but the idea that HN is a pure representation of any single ideology, either in general or at any particular karma threshold where there are more than a handful of users, is absurd.
