It is buggy for sure; But many of the Spotify apps I use work fine on Linux even without support though.

I'm constantly divided between two options. 1. "Tapping into the zeitgeist and participate proactively is great." As you put it so eloquently :) 2. The alternative is to follow you…

For sure, persuasion is all about exploiting the backdoors of your consciousness to influence your free will. Powerful stuff man.

Even though a solid package manager was enough to get me on board, I deeply agree with you in that building a community around it will make all the difference. I'd also like to thi…

I'm aware publishing GIFs on HN is off-topic and I realize this might be a bit childish but I couldn't help myself, and also, you sound like a lad with a sense of humor so you migh…

Not sure if I understood you correctly but as far as I know HN uses algorithms already for this sort of taks. That's cool but I'd like to have better control, so I'm designing a cu…

Well, there's some high value on learning lessons by yourself, it may have taken some time from your life, but you ended up understanding better the in and outs. So good for you my…

I found it curious that something is never mentioned in that post. That is, not voting at all. So yeah, I generally agree with PG in that > it's ok to use the up and down arrows to…

>> assuming good faith on the poster haha I get it. And that's also very kind of you. I do it too sometimes, trying not to lose perspective of the true purpose of the conversation …

Don't you think that would break the minimalist design? I don't think it would benefit, not to mention it would be a little too opinionated. I suspect HN's up/down system follows t…

Well then, it seems to me that you have a very healthy approach to votes and flags. It should be common sense but I suspect not everyone with the ability to downvote has such consi…

I was trying to be crystal clear. But I liked your conciseness more than my long-winded reasoning break down.

I've found that the most healthy way to deal with people that dismiss your entire argument/point/opinion by nit-picking your grammar (or similar) is to dismiss them back, kindly. T…

I don't agree with mreiland. I didn't dismiss you donizx, your first comment was a smart POV. mreiland is just being rude, he probably had a bad day or was recently frustrated with…

If you don't want to waste your time with climate change deniers, just skip and don't address them, that's cool, life is short no doubt about that. If you find yourself in a situat…

Oh hey, you wrote that? You might have mentioned it on another thread because I have it on my amazon wishlist already. xP I've just promoted your book up in the long to-read list.

Disclaimer: I didn't downvote you, I just comment to offer some insight (unrequited perhaps). You said: >> People can't read the unsaid stuff. Buy many people CAN read the unsaid s…

>> So why was I being sidelined? I demanded answers. Dustin did not disappoint. Nice, you have some storytelling skills :) I'd bet those will come in handy once you learn to apply …

haha that's hilarious, I don't think I have enough rep to make my voting count, but I nevertheless upvoted you just in case. And I should warn you! I WILL make a T-shirt and give y…

You might be right. Even when in many cases you can immediately tell downvotes were necessary, deserved and the commenter should've seen it coming. I've also encountered many cases…

Unfortunately, I don't think "aha!-you're-not-exactly-right" kind of people are going away anytime soon, they've been around on the net since I first laid mouse on it (the 90s, I'm…
