It's surprising a former digg developer describes pagination as hard. Really?
- bbsabelli 14y agoIt's not hard if you have no traffic.
- ralfn 14y agoIf you would browse 1-100, then 100-200, changes are you are going to see the same links twice, and miss other links, just because the result set had changed in between the two requests. And caching a snapshot per user seems a bit expensive. Pagination is a mess on Reddit and HN, so maybe he considers pagination "hard to get right"., since no social news aggregator gets it right.
- da_n 14y agoTotally agree, pagination is painfully broken on HN.
