> too lazy to look it up now
People doing this frustrates me greatly. You had to type 30 key strokes. ⌘+t "ycombinator fb revenge porn" ↵ and paste the results back. How many people are going to read your comment? Maybe 10% of them want to read those links. You spared yourself a trivial amount effort by offloading it to tens or hundreds of others.
I wish people would provide links and source what they say more often. Maybe more discussion sites should let others suggest edits, like on stackoverflow. We could save some of that wasted effort.

- dhimes 9y agoIf would be kinda cool if HN were to start working on an algo to find those links automatically (a "possibly related" section at the top, for instance).
- danso 9y agoI sometimes misunderestimate how long it'll take me to write out my thoughts or how much time I'll have before I need to get back to work. By the time I finished my comment I realize I wrote enough for the comment to be a fleshed-out enough argument; anyone wanting to see those past threads could look them up if necessary. I guess I could have saved you some angst by jumping up to the top of my comment and removing the sentence about me being lazy.
