PG, can you please give us a description of what Office Hours means.
cool, whomever down voted this you are a pretentious ass - rather than explain, you downvote.
As a side thought:
Given that we have had this ongoing discussion about the comment scores being hidden to preserve real dialogue - we should require a comment for every downvote, such that every downvote comes with an explanation or talking point for further discussion.
As it stands, the downvote is a silent and anonymous point of disagreement -- is allowed, and becomes visable (through greyed out comments) -- where the ability to see the comment's upvote count is not allowed and not reflected in the font size/color of the comment and thus invisible.
PG, I respectfully disagree with any and all reasonings you may have of hiding comment upvotes, and my opinion is only reinforced through the visable effect downvotes have on comments.
- nostromo 15y agoA big portion of the article answers this question.
- alagu 15y agoA more detailed explanation of office hours in pg's 'At YC' article - http://ycombinator.com/atyc.html http://ycombinator.com/atyc.html
- alnayyir 15y agohnofficehours.com I worked on this webapp with ez, guz, and others. The idea is that people with knowledge/expertise in a subject can "hold office hours" with (strangers?) people looking for advice.
