Wrong from whose perspective? It's strange that "wrong" things make it to the front page. By definition wouldn't that make them "right?"

If only it were that simple. HN is about optimizing for intellectual curiosity, and that is only one of the reasons why stories get upvoted.

Yeah I understand that perspective. I really think that these are the type of posts that won't be upvoted like some post about Elon Musk or Bitcoin. I guess there's a good potential for promotional upvotes since there are so many people invested in the post being seen. Would it be possible to not count upvotes from people who post comments? (Not comments of comments, however.)

http://imgur.com/1xfJRbq http://woodspotting.com/ Been a pet project for a few months. It started out as a hacker news for woodworking (my obsessive hobby), and it ended up being a hybrid with a web crawler that auto posts from about 100 blogs I like to follow. I'm its biggest user, but it seems to be slowly growing in terms of traffic.

What's the advantage over /r/woodworking?

Funny, I got the same exact question when I posted it there. Honestly, not much until it morphed into an rss feed of my favorite blogs.

insaana.com - A real estate marketplace. Connects buyers and sellers directly and provides necessary services to complete the transaction (from connecting buyers and sellers to handing over the key to the buyer).

Still in beta, tons of things to do, built with Django/Postgres.

Ha, then I guess just make sure it's linked in their sidebar.

this looks very nice! is it possible to translate messages that only show in specific use-cases (for example error messages)?

Goliath. An alternative Dashboard for Wordpress, based on Wp-Svbtle with a medium.com like editor.

I really liked the simplicity of svbtle, medium's editor and wordpress's raw power. QSo i built this scounging from the discontinued wp-svbtle project.

Same thing I've been working on for most of the past few years: my graphic novel about a robot lady dragged outside of reality by her ex-boyfriend. http://egypt.urnash.com/media/blogs.dir/1/files/2012/08/Scre... - the WIP page of the moment http://egypt.urnash.com/media/blogs.dir/1/files/2014/04/phot... - I woke up with a crazy idea about the final printed volume this morning http://egypt.urnash.com/rita/ - the comic…

This is fantastic. Love the art style! Looks like I'm going to be spending the next few hours reading through this now...
