The value of an HN post or comment that people actually see is so much higher than the value of a CAPTCHA-solve that there's no point in even talking about this.
- ibejoeb 10mo agoTotally. Captcha should be thought of as rate limiting, not anti-spam.
- SoftTalker 10mo agoAnd HN already has rate-limiting, at least for newer accounts.
