"... The Submissions System is Broken ..." Yes it's broken but HN has always been broken to some degree ~ http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/398269769 http://www.flickr.com/photos/bootload/398269769 But is the core functionality broken? Not really. These type of problems are edge cases, a PIA, but not killer bugs. For pg, I imagine HN is sort of a positive side effect of developing Arc & YC. Fixing this kind of broken but working feature, the downside.
