You have literally responded to a person saying that their questions were closed very quickly without proper review with, "I'm happy to hear it. This is how it's supposed to work." (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43927524 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43927524).
- zahlman 2y agoYes. I said that because that actually is the policy. Review comes after the closure. This is the explicit and intentional design of the system. In other posts, I cited this (https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/260263 https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/260263); not sure how that escaped from that post. (To clarify, the entire point is that the closed state is the review period. It's temporary by design. And questions that are answerable may still not meet site standards, and can nearly always be improved. If I had my druthers, questions would start out closed.)
