- nubinetwork 4mo agoHe's replied to my emails before... /shrug
- matheusmoreira 4mo agoI've emailed dang before and definitely got a reply.
- mmcclure 4mo agoI'm not sure if this is sarcasm, but I've been blown away by the thoughtful responses I've gotten from dang. They don't always come quickly, but I would expect that given how crazy I assume that inbox is.
- karakoram 4mo agoNothing personally against Dang, you are right, usually replies are great, but I just have not received replies as of late. Yeah, could be that the Mods are just really busy.
- argee 4mo agoI suspect the emails are triaged quickly and there is a low-priority bucket which may or may not ever get a reply. In my experience if there is a clear call to action and addressing the issue will have any sort of meaningful impact, it's unusual to not get a reply.
- rogerrogerr 4mo agoAt least it probably means they haven’t been replaced with LLMs…
- Zambyte 4mo agoOr they were running Fable :-)
- tacocataco 4mo ago> They don't always come quickly, but I would expect that given how crazy I assume that inbox is. A wizard is never late or early, but arrives precisely when he means to.
- sph 4mo agoHe has always replied to me, and has always been gracious, even when I felt a little too argumentative. It’s hard being an hotheaded internet keyboard warrior like me when the moderators are going out of their way to remain polite and courteous when disagreeing. This is why I share my email on my website and on my HN profile: it’s so much easier to see the human in 1:1 conversation.
- gosub100 4mo agoHe's not the only one behind the wheel. I've emailed at least 6 times in as many years and always got substantial replies.
- stavros 4mo agoI've always gotten timely replies too from dang, not sure why your experience is so different. Maybe an unlucky spam filter?
