- MehdiEG 15y agoIn fairness, I would assume that pg and al. are clued in enough to know that HN's login and registration system is complete bollocks. They just don't care about it (presumably, they consider that there are more important things to work on than fixing this, which I'd say is probably true).

- willvarfar 15y agoThere's nothing communities like better than meta-discussion. I've seen it myself - my post comparing HN traffic to my blog on technical vs fluffy posts actually got further longer than any of the posts it was comparing.
