I'm curious how long some of you have been around for, when you're saying things like "discussion of HN isn't allowed".
There are usually lengthy discussions about stuff every time something about the site changes.
There was a lot of discussion about comment vote counts, for instance. That is "discussing the community".
- daenz 14y agoI remember that that discussion was initiated by pg, so it was an implicitly "ok" thing to discuss. Double standard?
- blhack 14y agoUh, no. Actually at least one of those discussions where initiated by me.
- daenz 14y agoOk, so here's the poll created by PG 1.5 years ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2445039 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2445039 If you have a submission that's earlier than that, then I'm wrong.
- blhack 14y agoWell here is one that I started: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2445017 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2445017 And here is another "meta" discussion that I started: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2663717 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2663717
- duck 14y agoRight at four years ago this week: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=219081 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=219081. The best part is this meta discussion was a top five item for the week. Times change though...
