When there's a cure for cancer that prevents Alzheimer's and grants immortality I'll come to HN to find out why it's shitty.

There's a trove of clever people on HN, I never lookup usernames or track who posts what. It's enlightening in a way to remember even smart people are still people.

I think there is trove of people who think they are clever on HN. Most likely includes me, but I don't comment much because of that reason.

Disc: Googler.

I’m confused. Why was the Google disclaimer necessary?

It is better to post excessive disclaimers on the chance they're not necessary than to accidentally not post one where it's relevant.

This post and the parent comment they responded to are both about Google?

Most large companies have policies stating that employees have to disclose their affiliation on social media when talking about any matter concerning the company or its products. No one really follows it, but still.

That's easy, over population is why it's shitty.
