Maybe I'm quaint and silly but this kind of overhyped byline makes me doubt that there will be any kind of insight here which thousands of years of recorded human thought hasn't already captured.
- shostrift 9y agoThanks for the insightful comment. Let's just not bother doing research any more and just go with our hunches from now on.
- moon4u 9y agoI am kinda new to hackerrank and I don't know what it means when a comment is grayed out (it doesn't sound like a good thing), but I totally agree with you. I read the first part of the article and I just couldn't read further. It's like the article is about how great of an accomplishment that study is, instead of the data that supposedly came out of it.
- abusoufiyan 9y agoIt means it was heavily downvoted. Others don't agree with us. That's okay though. At least I'm not alone!
- tmnvix 9y agoIt means this comment was heavily downvoted. In this case the comment was originally at least five times longer than it currently is so many of the reasons for the downvoting are no longer apparent.
- jacquesm 9y ago> I am kinda new to hackerrank and I don't know what it means when a comment is grayed out (it doesn't sound like a good thing) This is hackernews, not hackerrank, and when a comment is grayed out it means more than a few people have downvoted it. https://www.hackerrank.com/ https://www.hackerrank.com/
