Ugh. I know. But it's a joke and the fact that everyone there takes it seriously means they aren't serious. It's a waste of time. If the site is trying to be a funny place to go talk about stupid ideas, then it succeeds, but if it's trying to be a serious place to talk about real ideas, then it fails.
That's all I'm saying.

It's one thing to talk about your ideas and get critiqued with close friends, it's quite another to post it on the public internet! Edit: Changed "this" to "that" so it doesn't sound like it's referring to HN
- prawn 17y agoExactly. If you want a jokey ideas site, there's the Half-Bakery. With this ideas site, I was hoping for HN but covering spare ideas alone.
