everything at bigthink is a video.
- bradlane 16y agosome people may not know that or notice the site being linked to, etc...
- duck 16y agoFrom http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html: If you submit a link to a video or pdf, please warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title.
- jargon 16y agoYeah, I know the "rules". Point is, everything at big think is a video. Funny how I had 21 karma points before I posted that comment, which got 4 down votes and another comment got 3 upvotes, but now I have 15 karma points. How does 21 - 4 + 3 = 15?
- judofyr 16y ago1) I've never heard of BigThink.com before. 2) I very often open many links without thinking about which domain it's on. 3) A post's karma will never show below -4, even though the real karma could be way lower.
- jargon 16y agoMonths ago -8 was the limit. Really, what's the point in limiting the display to -4 if it's really minus n? Why not just show minus n?

- mrduncan 16y agoA score of -4 is actually -5 karma points (since everything starts at 1 point). Here's a tip though - you can't cash it in for prizes, don't worry about it.
- jargon 16y agoAnd 1 point is actually zero. Now I'm down to 4, so 15 minus "5" plus 2 = 4 in hackernews math? For the record, I don't care about karma points, I care about whether or not the system works correctly.
