- koyote 12y agoWhy would it be downvoted? I think this is akin to posting a link to a page in a language that is not English. Surely there would be many comments reflecting the users' annoyance of having to use Google translate to read the page; no matter 'who' is sleeping or awake. That being said, a single upvoted comment on the matter should be enough to make the OP aware.
- rplnt 12y agoThat's the general trend I noticed on reddit. Comments about imperial/metric units are either upvoted or downvoted depending on the time (sometimes topic). Maybe HN isn't as bad. And I have to agree that one post would be enough (and comments about using search engines are not necessary).
- Houshalter 12y agoBecause there are dozens comments saying the same thing, and many of them are sort of rude.
- lnanek2 12y agoI'm US, and voted the complaints up because I found them both funny and useful - pointing out a flaw that makes it tougher to use for many people.
- jackvalentine 12y agoI don't think that your point and my point are mutually exclusive.
