- WalterGR 1y agoIt’s strange that the sibling comment is flagged. I ordinarily never remark about flagged comments - but as a public service announcement: Direct links to PDFs, as in the first of the above submissions, can be annoying to deal with in mobile browsers. Sharing the abstract is a nice gesture and not simply noise.

You can also email a vouch to HN's mods at hn@ycombinator.com. They can remove flags directly, though the email lag response seems to be increasing (give it 24--48 hours), which makes direct vouches all the more valuable.
