It's interesting you feel like poisoning a conversation is wrong or bad. When I see a conversation or thread that is "bad" I feel like immediately poisoning it is a valid solution. A blunt one, no doubt, but in the face of overwhelming waves of "bad" or dangerous conversation it's a fine tool to have.
- wolverine876 3y agoI would email the HN moderators - smart, responsive people who really know their stuff - and talk about it with them. They encourage people to reach out, including about things like what we're talking about. hn@ycombinator.com I'm not sure where they are today - usually they would have arrived long ago for a conversation like this one. You are entitled to your opinion, of course, but that type of activity - poisoning, etc. - isn't welcome on HN.
