I partly mean “moderating” --- deleting spam, disemvowelling incivility, that sort of thing. But also highlighting the better comments (the best comments, if worthy enough, should be highlighted by referring to them in a subsequent post, b

If a blog post gets shared to HN and it's worth commenting on, it will get commented on at HN. Similarly with Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, etc. So why shouldn't the post link to those conversations? The problems I have with “Comment on this p

I usually don't remember to change the From address until I've started writing the text of the e-mail --- the From address dropdown has vanished by then.

by mooism2 14y ago
A particular nit: It's harder to change which e-mail address I'm sending from. Old way: use drop down list to select the from address I want. New way: click To field. From address drop down list magically appears. Use drop down list to sele

It is already April 1st in some places. (I'm trying to avoid all the April Fool's stuff, yes.)
