You chose to use your comment to promote longnow movement (there's no other reason to use that esoteric and confusing date format), and the conversation turned to the longnow movement. If you don't want to discuss the longnow movement in the future, don't bring it up.
- kragen 5y agoHacker News exists for curious, open-minded discussion of ideas, whether they're esoteric and confusing date formats, the history of operating systems, or the future of work in the wake of the pandemic. It does not exist for partisan struggles in which people compete to most vehemently condemn whoever they consider to be the other side, which is what mattl was doing. If you're looking for that, go back to Twitter; don't try to turn Hacker News into yet another wasteland of content-free dunking and ultimatums.
