the easiest way to collect upvotes is effluvient praise for whichever silicon valley company is currently the "great golden hope".

the easiest way to collect downvotes is to contradict any of PG's implicit or explicit biases. the weight of mass down-voting seems to have improved since sama has taken over and PG is blogging less.

interestingly, posts such as yours (calling out hivemind / mass up/down-voting) seem to easily get a large amount of upvotes as well.

They get a lot of eye rolls too, but we don't have any metrics on that.
