    I did once and was told off for adding noise to the discussion by someone who didn't see the irony of their complaint also adding to the noise.

      If a one-time correction has its desired impact, the small addition to the noise reduces future noise.

        This is some sort of meta joke, right?

          Why are you assuming they work in FAANG?
          • gerdesj 4y ago
            There's no M in FAANG ...

          It's not, and it's pretty clearly true. The idea that "complaints about people violating the HN norms is somehow comparable to violating the norms" is trivially wrong if one thinks about it for more than a few seconds.

        Presumably.

      Two chemists walk into a bar. The first says “I’ll take a glass of H2O.” The second says “I’ll take a glass of H2O too.”

        Oh no...

    A horse walks into a bar. Several of the patrons quickly get up and leave, realizing the potential danger in the situation.

      This has to be my favorite version I've ever heard.

      Thank you for posting a joke to HN. Thank you for making me laugh today.

      Since I wasn't sure whether it's meant literally or if I'm missing some context, I decided to do a web search with this joke as a query, and was rewarded with a recording of it (apparently) playing out in real life: https://old.reddit.com/r/gamegrumps/comments/9kgeqg/a_horse_walked_into_a_bar_several_people_got_up/ https://old.reddit.com/r/gamegrumps/comments/9kgeqg/a_horse_...

      A priest, a rabbi and a minister walk into a bar. The bartender say, “What is this, a joke or something?”

        A priest, a rabbit, and a minister, walk into a blood donation clinic. The rabbit says "I think I might be a type-o".

    There are. We just have a high bar. I wrote this, but others have also pointed to it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7609289

    There are different languages. The jokes are symptomatic of the differences. I'm not Indian but English is laughable for many good reasons. Without damage...

  Genuinely curious to hear why you are so shocked. Long, ugly, user unfriendly urls are really prevalent. Arguments can be made even query params are pretty ugly.. Are urls expected to be a good UX these days? What's the big deal?
  • everforward 4y ago
    > Are urls expected to be a good UX these days? What's the big deal? I think they are. If I want to go back to some page I was looking at earlier, it's really nice to be able to find that page in my history. That Yahoo URL is going to be hard to differentiate if you looked at a few stocks. It's also handy if the URL's are predictable enough that I can hit one directly rather than having to go through search. Good for me because I don't wait on page load, good for them because they don't have to serve my search request. It's pretty low on my list of UX annoyances, but it is there.
  • hunter2_ 4y ago
    I don't think people care so much about a messy address bar as a messy chat/email message after pasting a URL. Shorteners and vanity URLs exist, but that's more friction than just copying from the address bar as-is. This can be overcome with html, markdown, and other rich text formats that let you specify the visible link text (missing from many chat apps*), but that's also friction to compose compared to automatically linking from just a URL. *Slack's implementation is awesome: type the link text, highlight it, and paste a URL.
    • owl57 4y ago
      It's not even only about messiness. "https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34315441 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34315441" isn't some horrible long base64, but it's not a good UX either: when you paste it in a messenger, or in your notes, by default the reader can't tell what's it about without clicking. > *Slack's implementation is awesome: type the link text, highlight it, and paste a URL. Yes! Matches my vision of hypertext perfectly: I usually type a message in normal human language and then paste links all over it for the reader who needs to dig deeper.
