In case there's further whining about this comment being downvoted: I didn't downvote due to hivemind mentality or agreement/disagreement about the original, I downvoted because whining about downvotes makes boring reading. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Additionally, it takes a single, random HN user with 500 karma to put a comment into "downvoted" state. It takes three or four to be "heavily downvoted" (which doesn’t apply to your original comment). Just not a very meaningful thing to draw conclusions from.
