It's comments from users like mechanical_fish that make Hacker News so interesting. Looking through your comment history I don't see anything massively interesting.
It worries me that your comment has been voted up.
- mechanical_fish 18y agoI wouldn't be that worried. ;) I made the same comment myself as soon as I finished writing this piece: http://twitter.com/mikebooth/status/1225683925 http://twitter.com/mikebooth/status/1225683925 There is something about HN that keeps me writing here. Even I am not sure what it is.
- wheels 18y agoI use searchyc to put my aggregation of news.yc comments in my FriendFeed. :-)
- kirubakaran 18y agoDo keep "posting essays" in HN. I love your comments and read http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=mechanical_fish http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=mechanical_fish every day.
- weavejester 18y agoAre you certain you're not misinterpretting Herring's comment? I read it as "Dude, that is so good you need to start writing a blog", but you seem to read it as "Dude, get a blog if you want to write rubbish". TBH it's ambiguous enough that either interpretation could be valid.
- almost 18y agoI think you may be right. I retract my previous comment (don't seem to be able to edit it at the moment)
