- NY_Entrepreneur 15y agoApparently some brain-dead, angry HN 'administrator' has essentially banned posts of NY_USA_Hacker at least to this thread. Posts made invisible to others include http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2733913 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2733913 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2733801 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2733801 Sounds like some HN 'administrator' doesn't want to hear about good answers to the question of this thread, that is, the serious side of probability! Apparently they don't like Breiman at Berkeley, Cinlar at Princeton, Karr at UNC, Wierman at Hopkins, Dynkin at Cornell, McKean at Courant, Karatzas at Columbia, Shreve at CMU, etc. That's a lot of the cream of US applied math not to like! HN is sinking to a new low! We're talking brain-dead here, folks! What is here is an attack that is emotional and personal and not rational or objective. Paul: Chip in here and explain this 'hidden censorship' or face a big hole in the credibility and objectivity of HN.
- szany 15y agoAll of your posts since http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2698286 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2698286 are dead actually. A mistake, I hope.
- NY_Entrepreneur 15y agoApparently now all posts by user NY_USA_Hacker are within a few hours automatically marked as "dead". Someone at HN really does NOT like NY_USA_Hacker! The shame is on HN and Paul. As the HN community figures this out, the 'community' of HN will fall. Paul is playing fast and loose with objectivity and open discussion.
