I thought Youtube comments were the cliche, then I met HN comments on the Coronavirus.
Even an attempt to understand why this particular case out of the 100,000 would be discussed is pointless given the comments.
- jacquesm 7y agoBecause a lot of people on HN work for google and upvoted the article until it ended up on the homepage. People tend to care more about things they can relate to. George Carlin had a bit about that, how when there is an earthquake in Pakistan nobody cares but when there is a car crash in front of their door they'll gawk for hours.
