- dang 2y agoThat's because the community in the end rejected it overwhelmingly, as anyone who reads the comments in this thread will understand. Admins did nothing, other than refrain from intervening. Normally a post of this sort would never stay on HN's front page. In the end it spent 4 hours on the front page. That's because we suspended our usual quality control, as I explained at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40100680 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40100680. dredmorbius's sibling comment already made the point, but I wanted to add more in the hope that no one ends up with the wrong idea.
