Re:Open Letter to Tim Cook on Monday October 31, 2016 @01:17AM (#12834443)
Alas without the 3-finger drag gesture on the Surfacebook, it's a non-starter for me. It's horrifying to think that even though the hardware supports it, that gesture is patented and cannot be used.

I am sorry, does anyone know how to navigate this comment page??? I can't even find the 2nd comment. The first comment has tons of replies and I have scrolled 30 pages and cant even find the 2nd comment.

Dear Hacker News - after scrolling 3 pages I still haven't seen the 2nd comment. Can you please implement collapsable comments? Please!?

Could the transition start by having a 30 hour work week, for example? If I work 40+ hours and a certain percentage of my income goes towards sustaining the unemployed, I would far rather work fewer hours and give that work to an unemployed person.
Re:Ask HN: Why are comment trees not collapsible yet? on Thursday February 18, 2016 @12:13AM (#11123853)
The comment page is basically broken without this feature. I rarely get to the even the 3rd comment when the first comment has many responses. Please allow collapsable comment trees.
Re:The Case for Making Humans Smaller on Sunday November 15, 2015 @01:10PM (#10570412)
This is a laughably stupid idea. Trying to stay ahead of geometric growth is always a losing battle. Instead of turning humans to Smurfs, why don't we try to control the birth-rate instead.

New here. How do you collapse comments in Hacker news threads?

How do you collapse comments on Hacker News? I read a comment which I want to get past, but if it has 3 pages of responses, I have to scroll through them all. I often just get to frustrated and leave the thread after reading the top 2 or 3 comments if the discussions is very active. Is there a way to collaps comments?

Re:The Microsoft Surface Book Review on Tuesday November 10, 2015 @10:07AM (#10539697)
A laptop that doesn't have great trackpad interface is a non-starter. Really looking forward to trying out the Microsoft laptop in person. But still using my 2010 macbook pro and smooth-as-glass scrolling is a minimum bar.
