It’s fine to criticize corporations, thoughtfully. It happens all the time here. And YC exists to challenge major corporations and continues to work hard every day to help startups challenge them. My request to you has nothing to do with criticizing corporations and everything to do with posting lame comments that drag this place down and do nothing at all to diminish corporations.
- utopiah 4mo agoHonestly I think labeling the comment (which is justified and involves a pun, sure might be dad-joke level but still) as "lame" is more toxic, or bring the forum down, than mine but OK, maybe I have a bias. Strike through all this and see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48673613 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48673613 instead
- utopiah 4mo agoAnyway, apologies for the whole thread, I'll be more mindful both of the guidelines and how to provide a better avenue for meaningful conversations, thank you for trying to make this a better place.
- tomhow 4mo agoMany thanks :) We know it can be hard to stay on the right side of the guidelines and we don't expect everyone to perfect (how boring!) but we just need people to keep them in mind and do their best.
