How is the HN community upvoting this? There is not a single piece of actual data that actually backs any single one of these outlandish salary claims. This is all hearsay from one single source with no proof whatsoever.
Given that HN has been on a fake news crusade (and rightly so), I would expect we would have the critical thinking not to entertain this kind of nonsense.
- grzm 10y agoAs of the time of this comment, the story is marked '[flagged]'. You do have some specific criticisms, which is great. Statements such as How is the HN community upvoting this? and Given that HN has been on a fake news crusade (and rightly so), I would expect we would have the critical thinking not to entertain this kind of nonsense. are generalized swipes at the community you're participating in. There are many more than 21 people on HN (the number of upvotes this has received so far). Painting the whole community with the same broad brush is unfair.
