cmon guys, lets not start mutating into digg. i started frequenting HN because the content and community is much better. lets try and keep some standards.

i think its safe to assume that most people here also at least scan digg, so if its on there, and you're thinking "ooh boy HN would love this!", odds are, we're all loving it already as we see it on digg, just like you. so leave it on digg, unless its topically relevant. please.

(for reference, i'm saying this because this image was frontpaged on digg yesterday-ish.).

The question is, who voted this up? That's really who you're annoyed with.

Believe it or not, some of us don't visit Digg. As for the relevance of the post, I think it is relevant enough. No one forced you to click on the link btw.

If you think this is relevant I don't see why you'd avoid Digg.
Re:Windows Vista source code by noodle on Sunday April 06, 2008 @03:55PM (#156373)
thats why i used the word "most" instead of "all".

and you can use the same argument you made to justify posting lolcats or porn. there's a line somewhere, and all i'm saying is that i think that its being crossed more and more lately, this one being a more blatant one.

Oh, let's.

  cmon   ...  C'mon,
  guys,  ...  guys: or guys.
  lets   ...  let's
  i      ...  I
  lets   ...  Let's
But who am I to criticize? Obviously, 21 people and counting upmodded your rambling complaint, and ultimately it's the community itself that decides what is or isn't good.
