Please no confirmation prompts. Those are annoying when I am sure that I want to perform an action. I'd rather have an undo button after clicking.

  I agree, no confirm, but the current undo procedure for hide is definitely painful and it's really easy to accidentally click. On the other hand, maybe it's a feature. Lately I've taken the approach that if I hid it accidentally, it probably wasn't worth reading anyway. I'm learning to let it go.

    There's a simple fix (from a UX perspective): when you click "hide", swap the button with "unhide" but don't actually hide the article until you refresh.

      Would require updating the page with JS Edit: HN does in fact have things that change without reload like voting, so I take that back, good idea
