I didn't think someone would go to such lengths to seek attention... kinda sad.

Are you being sarcastic? You need to read PGs essay "The Submarine" to put this in context.

You are right :)... Too many blogs about FB! I meant to say insideFB, but typed FBsecrets instead... but its the same argument. Neither of these is owned by FB so its not Mark or FB lying.

Sounds good. What about posting a link to the original content. Here is an example: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43528 From the article it is clear that the original news was broken at: http://news.com.com/8301-10784_3-9761584-7.h

I've had this happen to one of my submissions too. It was this post: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41988 I didn't put the authors name in title and it was edited to reflect that.

Yup. I posted it in this thread a while back, but looks like it got buried under earlier posts: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43352

Interestingly I was looking at this chart and then came to news.yc and saw your post. I don't understand your question. Are you asking why there are lows and highs for each day? It is because the its traded just like stocks are traded and h

If you are looking for feedback, I can think of one. Maybe it has to do with comments like these: "Some idiot just karma bombed me. I lost around 10 points. Coward hiding in the shadows.. Step up" Calling someone an idiot/coward. Making a f

I don't know who is downvoting you, but maybe you need to follow your own advice: "The best way to get karma is to not care about getting karma"

I am not sure if it was all negative... I am sure the British brought good things to India. I do believe a century long British rule changed the focus and stifled innovation and free thought. How would it have gone had the British never rul

This is really interesting news. It is sad in a way that so much of the previous efforts have been wasted due to differences in cultures, invasion, wars, disease etc. Imagine Newton studying this math when he was a kid... he would be workin

"We're going to have a group of human editors who train the system in what counts as a good story" A knowledge based system - I am eagerly awaiting the new voting system.
