- lugg 9y agoNah, we'd just have check boxes and a submit at the bottom of the page and we'd call it UX.
- pshc 9y agoKind of a cool hack: I believe HN used to record upvotes through a CSS rule that (when clicked) caused an empty image to load. No JS required.
- na85 9y agoUpvoting adds nothing but the capacity for groupthink. See what voting has done to the level of discourse on reddit. The larger the community, the worse the problem. If we couldn't vote on comments asyncrhonously (or, IMHO at all), nothing of value would be lost.
