Does HN still have those frustrating title renaming rules? If so this would be a good time to insist on using them.

  If you propose a better title and an admin sees your comment, they'll change it if they agree it is called for.

  What's wrong with the title? (Genuinely would like to do better next time.)

    Second that - what's wrong with the title? It's descriptive, neutral, factual.

      It's missing an indication that she is tweeting via an intermediary.
      • cachvico 12y ago
        I think the important part is that she has a Twitter account, and is using it.

    Your title is fine, SwellJoe. I was being petty and pointing out a case where a descriptive title that didn't match the HTML <TITLE> dramatically improved the submission. I have long felt HN's title renaming policies were a bit too aggressive and I'd like to see 'em go away. This wasn't the right venue for me to bring that up though - things have improved a good bit under dang's tenure already.
