- anigbrowl 3y agoMany of us approve of that.
- dredmorbius 3y agoMany of us do, indeed. <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33698018 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33698018> <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20781277 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20781277> <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17652359 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17652359> (The /r/dredmorbius links in the comments linked above may be seen at the Internet Archive, as that subreddit has been taken private in protest of Reddit's recent policy direction.)
- dredmorbius 3y agoI'd discussed HN's linking SciHub directly with dang back in 2016, at which time his response was "I think that degree of anthill-overturning would be past prudent." <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11984443 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11984443> Apparently the anthill has been overturned for some time. No data on time/distance from prudent.
