It might work better to have an AMA-style thread where people can ask him to review their work in comments, more like the job threads. That way there's just one interesting new thread to upvote and read. Either way, this is a nice thing to do.
- dang 11y agoWe've been throwing around a similar idea of YC partners doing office hours on HN. But I love that this one happened spontaneously and just worked. It seems like a good idea to try it again and see how it goes.
- walterbell 11y agoThis would enable linking to previous Show HNs and reader ranking of the review candidates.
- kevin 11y agoIt was actually useful for me to see what other people thought and commented on in the threads (so I wouldn't spend time repeating stuff). Also, I'd still want people to get feedback from others on HN. You can see a stream of my comments here: https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=kevin https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=kevin Maybe we'll aggregate all of them in a thread at the end, but I'm with Dan on keeping it simple and reusing the format. It seemed to take me about 15-20 minutes do each one on average. The longest one took me about 35 minutes. I'll try to start around 10am Pacific and will go until I get tired. Thanks everyone in advance!
- jtfairbank 11y agoWould appreciate an aggregated thread at the end, with common problems / solutions / general advice at the end. :)
