"I looked into it more deeply and I found that apparently what happened is that yid was laid off five years ago and no one ever told him about it; but through some kind of glitch in the payroll department, he still gets a paycheck. So we just went ahead and fixed the glitch."

      We get it, you guys have seen Office Space. It doesn't contribute positively to the discussion.

        The only thing that stands as a non-contribution is your need to publicly proclaim a lack of a sense of humor.

        It's occasionally helpful to explain to people why they're being downvoted. Comments that consist of pop culture references usually aren't treated kindly.

        Yeah, right?! Why so serious? Now, seriously talking. A joke doesn't hurt a discussion. Laugh and move on. Or even better, keep making jokes.

        I think HN still tends to reward quick posts over more thoughtful ones. As humor is quicker to post, it will come to dominate (i.e. HN will become Reddit) without this important check/balance in the culture.

        As far as value added to the conversation, the joke added more value than the sarcastic passive agressive response did. HN should be more concerned with monday morning quarterbacks than people who add a new facet to the discussion.

        Why does it say "paper jam" when there is no paper jam?

If you get a 0 for your user ID, I have to imagine you are not logged in. I get a JSON object that shows "is_fb_employee" going to a literal false value.

This is Zuckerburg's passive-aggressive way of laying off employees.

  I like the idea that he implemented this feature today and submitted it to HN himself, just to fire yid. Sorry yid.
