"and illegally" is strangely missing from the title
- dkjaudyeqooe 3y agoGod knows what dystopian regulations/powers they created for themselves.
- dang 3y agoThat's no doubt an artifact of HN's 80 char title limit, which required the submitter to shorten the title. Edit: I've changed it now.
- joecool1029 3y agoIs 80 still the hard limit? I see it warns if too long when typing in a new submission. However, HN guidelines don't provide guidance in what to do if the title is too long.
- dang 3y ago80 is the hard limit with a few weird exceptions like you can have 6 extra chars for " [pdf]". > However, HN guidelines don't provide guidance in what to do if the title is too long We can't get to that level of detail in the guidelines—it would make them so long that no one would read them! Except maybe to look for loopholes.
