I feel like a person who, caught unawares, has to take refuge[1] when the tide comes in. You then just have to wait while the sea rages and eventually recedes.
it is amazing to watch the swirling currents of Twitter news around HN/Slashdot/Regular Press.

- tptacek 17y agoThank you for providing the obligatory comment about the Twitter fad. Now we have something to use to vote whether we like Twitter or not.
- tdavis 17y agoBut that's not what voting is supposed to be for!!1
- tptacek 17y agoI voted you up so now we can have another meta-vote on what voting is for.
- tdavis 17y agoI voted you up because I am thoroughly confused now and it just seemed like the right thing to do.
- JeremyBanks 17y agoIs it just me or does this tangent feel a bit like Reddit?
- tdavis 17y agoIs it just me or does it feel like people here spend way too much time wondering if something feels like reddit? I had the unfortunate necessity of reading some reddit comments recently, and believe me, nothing on HN feels remotely like reddit. When it does, I'll be sure to sound the alarm bells, I promise.
- JeremyBanks 17y agoI don't usually say so, it's just that chains of "I voted you up because..." can be found in almost every large discussion on Reddit.
- tptacek 17y agoI just voted you up as an expression of how much I don't like Reddit.
