Let's be realistic, even when the number of articles coming in is really high, you're talking about 100-150 posts for an hour. The HN algorithm has temporal-gravity to help pull down old content that wasn't hugely popular. Du

Zooming in without reflow, makes things bigger, but means you now have to swipe to move the viewport over the text. It can be an annoying feature, though there are other things that can be annoying about actually reflowing the text as well,

I had the same issue, regarding the Q section. Part of the issue was that Z comes right before that and was filled with one-sided words like 'dazed'(5/5 left-handed strokes) and 'sized'(4/5 LHS's). And the

Makes me sad that Keiretsu is still around. Jason Calacanis went after their horrible tactics 5 years ago[0], and was very vocal about it. This is the first I've heard of them in 3-4 years, so I just assumed they had closed up shop. On

The original Playstation had a similar switch on the lid mechanism. I think it was a safety feature to prevent the discs from spinning up, without the enclosure. When I was about 8-9, I found the mechanism, and ended up dismantling the syst
