A Japanese company cut 80% of the time needed to manually count pearls

The main reason I'm trying to cut down on my HN consumption a bit is the incessant pessimism. While a regular reality check is definitely useful, the "I'm so jaded by everything" vibe makes it hard to get excited about anything. I like being excited by things! It feels good and motivates me. Too much HN is a recipe for lethargy.

I think the most important reason to reduce consumption is due to everything being carefully curated.

Actual issues from a particular fruit company like the butterfly keyboard was cause of getting flagged, you weren't allowed to talk about it. Similar problems happen to this day.

Mac fans being rabid Mac apologists isn't something leaving HN is going to change.

I'm as frustrated as you are, but you shouldn't see this as the result of dictators, but rather the result of lots of cult members having access to the flag button.

Users flag content on HN for dubious, political reasons all the time. Why would this need to be a conspiracy, rather than simply a vocal minority?
