So what'd The Internet People™ do to it, exactly?
DDoS the WebSocket server? Write Very Bad URLs? Worse? :(
I wanted to see. Not fair, takers away of nice things. >:/
- joshspankit 5y agoAlso curious. I thought the last thing up would be a screenshot.
- jvanderbot 5y agolet me see. I open a page and text that other people enter in real time is rendered as html on that page? what could possibly go wrong.
- toomanyrichies 5y agoI saw people had written things like "Hitler did nothing wrong", "Biden is a pedophile", etc. Basically the kind of stuff that makes one root for a meteor to come and wipe out humanity.
- stavros 5y agoI'd recommend watching the film "don't look up" for an optimistic view on a likely future for humanity (or the lack thereof).
- LesZedCB 5y agooptimistic? did we watch the same film? imo it couldn't have been more sardonic. absolutely second the recommendation of watching it!
- stavros 5y agoDepends on whether you root for a meteor to come and wipe out humanity.
- LesZedCB 5y agoactually, i watched a video about it after this that also said it was optimistic, and now i understand what you meant. it's optimistic in that it's not yet a realized future and we still have the opportunity to change course. i agree, and i hope we make strong moves together as a society to curb climate disaster. admittedly i'm not holding my breath.
- girvo 5y agoThe meteor did (or will do) nothing wrong
- mehrdada 5y agotrack record of films with too many A-list actors/actresses is terrible
- stavros 5y agoWell good thing I've watched it then and can recommend it on more information than "who's in it".
- temp8964 5y agoThose words make you want to wipe out humanity?
- toomanyrichies 5y agoNote that I'm kind of joking in my comment. That said, it shouldn't be terribly surprising that the comments I quoted would, at the least, reduce someone's faith in humanity.
- lofatdairy 5y agoIf that's the case then HN has a surprising number of 14-16 year old edgelords...
- girvo 5y agoIt really does. Every time a project like this is posted, the professional facade seems to drop and the community here reverts back to their primal 4chan posting selves. It's fascinating (if sad)
- robbedpeter 5y agoEvery ycombinator project involved with the creation, moderation, infrastructure, management, or sourcing of content for platforms makes use of hn as a source. Everyone in those circles follow suit, HN is beautifully curated and wonderfully crafted to be open. HN content is "fresh," mirrored on dozens of sites within minutes of showing up on the front page. 4chan and reddit get the links within about 20 minutes of it showing up here. Slashdot, dailydot, and other aggregators lag about an hour. Within 3 hours, most links here have probably hit the eyeballs of at least a few hundred million people, and there's probably a good 50k legitimately insane people in that crowd. I found HN when I started looking for where the aggregators and forums were sourcing stuff I was interested in. I'd love to see Google's rankings and see what other sites are similar to HN in this regard.
- nirui 5y agoThe writer must meant another poor feller, Michael Hitler. It's a surname from his parents for Christ's sake! And he is older than the evil Hitler! The most dark thing that he ever did in his entire life was kicking a cat in the butt while the cat was taking a dump on his doormat. And now everybody wants to pet his head with this weird hand gesture, and then kick his butt. Come on! Cut Michael Hitler a break, he did nothing wrong!
- toomanyrichies 5y agoThank you for this, it gave me a much-needed smile.
