I wonder if the comments will demonstrate responses that often reference an effect, theory, law, truism, named phenomenon, or some other thing that people excellent at pattern recognition would surface to explain or model the topic at hand. “What you’re describing is Jevon’s Paradox.”

> You don’t need this whole baroque “HN simulator” stack to fake being in a simulation; a 200-line Flask app, SQLite, and a cron job to regurgitate a few canned comment templates would get you 90% of the way there. Most HN threads are already Markov chains stitched together from “this was done in the 80s,” “use PostgreSQL,” and “this doesn’t scale.”
