The stuff I get downvoted for boggles my mind (e.g. get downvoted for saying thank you this was a good post).
They should rename HN to HM, HiveMind.

> HN votes more on delivery style than substance.
It's much worse than that.
Because most HNers have almost no actual knowledge or experience, you have to provide two links for them to read to get up to speed on virtually any topic.
I've done experiments on HN readers where virtually all of my posts are downvoted or flagged, but adding 2 links will usually get them upvoted. No difference in tone or opinion.
So if you read HN, you're also my personal guinea pig. Thanks! :)

Is this why some are saying we might need a booster shot in a few years?
