Reading this thread I am saddened to see hn apparently conform to the law of maximum offence. We see the least charitable explanation for everything said in the apology because outrage gets upvotes.
- rcxdude 5y agoI agree. This is what I would expect from twitter. I would have hoped HN could manage to be better.
- davidgerard 5y agothere's "assume good faith", and then there's "assume good faith of someone with a documented record of bad faith." The present case is the second. Assuming good faith in this apology is not sensible in the face of the existing evidence. Their goal seems to have been to generate a paper, and they haven't withdrawn that paper.
