Hi dang, I'm wondering is there a list of HN phenomena that you've noticed over the years?
Examples would be:
1. follow-up submissions
2. an initial wave of critical comments followed by a wave of apologist comments
3. first page of comments occupied by a single top level comment with lots of descendants (you often post to draw attention to other pages of comments in these cases)
- dang 6y agoThere's no systematic list but I use links to HN Search (like in the GP) to refer to such patterns. There must be a hundred such categories by now. Eventually I may try to compile them into something more standardized.
