- zaroth 7y agoSeriously, the ranking of HN comments in organic Google results is a little bit off-putting in some cases. Someone dialed up the weights on HN comments way past where IMO a potentially throwaway remark should be scored. And I say this as someone who tries to make substantive and significant HN posts on the regular.

If I sell it to you, you can fire them. These people are a bunch of bums, and they are all related to me and I can’t fire them. But you can fire them. They’re bums, bums, bums. [‘She went on like this for an hour, literally. The word ‘bums’ recurred many, many times. Then she dismissed me. I had served my purpose.’ – ###Warren Buffett The other quotes are quite an interesting read also.
