- xigoi 3y agoThis is a cold take. Many people on HN hate ligatures.
- psd1 3y agoA "hot take" is an initial reaction, without benefit of much data or consideration. Like when someone shouts to you after they've already thrown, and you must turn and catch in a fraction of a second. Or take a ball to the jaw. You've expressed a considered preference, not a hot take.
