I always appreciate a good joke but unfortunately this has become the top comment as of now and is not adding to the real discussion around Go 2. This is a typical case of when I use my downvote power. Great joke but we should keep HN noise free.
- esrauch 8y agoIs it really so harmful to have it at the top of the comment thread? I think HN can be focused mainly on serious discourse without being completely humorless.
- codegeek 8y agoI think about it all the time. But imagine leaving the page and coming back a few hours later. Now you have to sort through tons of unnecessary comments (even if funny and humorous) while you look for the quality stuff. Quality requires sacrifice and I am willing to sacrifice the humor part for quality unless you throw in a bit of humor with quality content.
- Stratoscope 8y agoA great way to solve this is to use the [-] button to collapse any comment threads that you're not interested in following, like this one. HN remembers which threads you've collapsed, so you won't see them when you come back to the page.
