My last gig we hired a team out of Minsk to help us with a project, brought them over to our US headquarters for about a month to help with planning and buildout.
When coronavirus took hold I got laid off and the team was cut loose. Not sure how they are holding up over there but damn I hope they are alright.
And fuck Lukashenko, I hope the man chokes on a cheeseburger.
- MuffinFlavored 6y ago> And fuck Lukashenko, I hope the man chokes on a cheeseburger. This kind of low-effort comment belongs on Reddit, not HackerNews. It's not insightful/up to the standards of typical content for this community.
- westmeal 6y agoIs your comment insightful?
- MuffinFlavored 6y agoIt is. It calls out the fact that trying to say witty remarks to get "upvoted" to the top is going to drag down HN, just how it dragged down Reddit. Why not explain why Lukashenko is a bad person to somebody who doesn't know? That's too much effort. Might as well make a quick joke and get validation from peers.
- effingwewt 6y agoGtfo. They simply mentioned how this a very worrisome situation, and quite rightly at the end of it, did some venting, which I haooen to agree with. It was your original comment and the later ones trying to defend said comment are the low-effort comments you are complaining about. And if you really don't know about Lukashenko a quick google will suffice,or the, idk hundreds of comments between this post and the last? And finally, it seems to me at least that if anyone here is pandering for worthless internet points, it is you.
- winkeltripel 6y agoI think it qualifies. It's about a community with some different standards than others. There's a different flavour of message-board with different content here.
