Thanks. For context, here is your original comment: > If you look back at the GPs comments you can see some that were flagged/closed recently, a few that were downvoted and also a good number of threads that turned into meta threads

I'm sorry, I posted some questions about Hackernews, on Hackernews. I do not see how I should suddenly become customer to some unrelated external services which could literally cause my phone to ring all day just in order to be entitle

Thanks but I think how I allocate my personal time is my personal decision to make ;) I was asking simple factual questions - e.g. the numerical value of "too fast". So I would appreciate if it could be answered primarily in a num

Can you please imagine this was not the Internet but real life: If you talk to your friends, and one of them is forbidden to speak, how high would the probability be that their emotional state is NOT affected? Ordering someone to be quiet i

Can you please tell me what the the "good number" is you're talking about? I do not have time to regurgitate my own history, but I scrolled over it once and it does not seem as controversial as you're portraying it here.

Ask HN: Why are 5 comments/day “posting too fast”, what precisely is “too fast”?

I don't care that the industry uses someone's tomatoes :) I merely care about the fact that the tomatoes are being called non-industrial even though they are 100% factory grown. I.e. Binance is not "crypto".

Yes that sucks - which is why I had used the full word "cryptocurrency" in the non-quote parts of my replies :)

Sure, but then don't call it "crypto" industry if it is not about cryptocurrencies. I don't care what you call it, calling the centralized Binance exchange "crypto" is just not accurate. They don't deserve

Cryptocurrencies were meant as a "grow your own food" thing in the first place, they are supposed to be decentralized. Hence it does not seem logical to go to a "grow your own food" subthread and wonder why it makes a po

Binance is not a cryptocurrency. Binance is a centralized service which allows people to buy cryptocurrencies, but which is not strictly necessary to use in order to use cryptocurrencies. People can use decentralized exchanges like Bisq if

Having to use a custom ROM is the same annoying amount of work as having to upgrade to a new phone every 2-3 years. Because custom ROMs usually update to the latest Android version ASAP, which moves tons of things around all over the OS, an

In my experience, if you tell one of the dance people that you have tried for over 10 years and still don't like it, they will very likely not even accept that. They will believe they can show you better and make you like it, and thus

We already have these. They're called humans. We had built computers also to overcome the human limitations of fuzziness and imperfection. Now apparently we think putting these limitations back into computers is a good thing.

Failure is an extremely common and accepted thing in biological systems - your offspring may just die if you have incompatible genes. Software on the other hand is a logical environment with clear, logical requirements. It ought to work, no

I don't think there is adherence to safety regulations. The majority of electronics gets produced in foreign nations far far away. Do you really think they obey the regulations?

You are comparing things which are not equal. The currently semi-bad low-grade coders will get pushed out and replaced with even WORSE ones. The worse ones will be the ones responsible for choosing and approving the code which was generated

If my house burns down due to random bugs in a big appliance, do you think the random underpaid 3rd world developers which will be used do care about that? I think this will lead to extreme cost cutting measures in choice of the developers
