    Not sad or confusing at all. It’s par for the course. WSB likes to use a line from The Dark Knight that Joker says - that it’s not about the money, it’s about sending a message. It…

    "Social Media" seems to be a scapegoat for the underlying causes: children are in particular affected by this because they haven't had years/decades to build up mental disorders ye…

    Can’t upvote this enough. HN has turned to shambles over the years as people here are way more concerned with “getting out” than they are with building companies. It’s not surprisi…

    This kind of attitude comes up on HN a lot. They have lots of internal tooling and jobs that have to be done, especially at their scale. WhatsApp with 50 employees is an anomaly. I…
