Not sure. My other comment in the thread got hit with a downvote at basically the same time. If there's a constructive discussion to be had, I'd like to have it. If I got something wrong, I'd like to be corrected. But I'm getting the sense that I somehow hit a nerve with the comment above about the strategy not being to just sit and wait, which is interesting. If theres a way to improve the tone of my communication to not generate some reflexive downvotes I'd also like to know that.
- pavlov 7y agoOn busy HN topics, you can assume downvotes are just part of the noise and not worry about it. The arrows in the UI are so close together, it’s easy to hit the wrong one by mistake. (Less charitably, for a busy topic the odds are there’s someone around for whom it happens to be their conspiratorial hobby horse and this manifests as downvotes on anything “mainstream”.)
