- sidcool 12y agoI chuckled reading some of the comments from armchair scientists. This gives me immense hope. For a big part of my life my decisions have been based on other peoples' judgement. Oddly, I feel personally vindicated.
- jobnobber 12y agoI'd say almost a third of HN comments are intentionally misleading or flat-out wrong. I've seen people include fake link citations to try and prove their point. Sadly, there are a huge number of phonies on HN. I'll bet many of them have enough karma to downvote too.
