It was a joke.
- btilly 6y agoYes, it was. And that is a reason to downvote. People aren't on Hacker News for the jokes, and a significant fraction don't like seeing threads hijacked by silliness. We've all seen Reddit, and are choosing not to be there for a reason. That's not to say that you can't get away with jokes here. But the bar for them to work is very high.
- jshevek 6y agoYou are correct, and this is important. The flood of 2020 newcomers have not acculturated, creating frequent misapprehensions.
- sunstone 6y agoWe are not amused.
