I'm really curious whats going on here. Is this a joke? Are you ok?
Re:A Remarkable Assertion from A16Z by ruined on Friday November 28, 2025 @09:14AM (#46078824)
did you even read the article??

I don't appreciate these kinds of simple one-line referential jokes on HN, but your joke was to emulate perfectly the central issue of TFA, so I do agree that it brings into question who did and who did not read the article -- I know you read it.

E-mail the staff (link in the footer). Either dang or tomhow will reply, and they take these seriously and can take action.

The central complaint of TFA is the exact same as what ruined is doing. It is very obviously a joke. Not something I appreciate on HN, but still.

I think it was a good enough joke or witty remark grounded in the crux of the article that it’s worth it. And it’s certainly interesting to see the “whoosh” past many of the commenters

It was flagged and I vouched it for similar reasons. I downvote such comments though.

This is brilliant, but people don't get it :)

Clearly you’re ending “um, it literally doesn’t” halfway through a word.
