If nobody wanted to read these stories they wouldn't make the front page. It's like this site is run on a kind of magical crowd-sourced voting-alytical engine. And, in the event of the apocalypse/a story you don't like actually making it on to the front page, feel free to not click it, not read it, and not waste your own precious electron-absorbing capacity on it. Hell, flag it if that makes you happy. If you really feel the need to actively reduce the number of irritating posts on HN, you can start by never submitting anything like this one again.

True story.

When I were a lad I coded on a 4K Radio Shack computer.

I only had 8 bits to work with when I started out.
