Earlier quoted context omitted.

Since it was missing there I realized how am I overusing '[-]' instead of scrolling. Like Tarzan swing on vines. (Also is this relavant or am I just piggy-backing your top comment?)

In 10 years of reading hacker news I never thought to press the [-] until this moment.

As a US poster, I need all units of measure to be what the Founding Fathers used and all pickup trucks to be what the Founding Fathers drove. As an EU poster, I won't understand the US obsession with large vehicles and I will recommend bicycling instead. As a programmer, I think we can improve performance if we multithread, containerise, microservice, and store n-depth JSON in a No-SQL database. As a Python programme…

I’m sad not to read anything about Rust and Kubernetes.

Unrealistic. Not a single person complained about link not working with JavaScript disabled.

Or back button hijack

Off-topic aside, but why do people complain about back-button hijack when you can long-press or right-click and get out of the site? It works on any browser AIUI.

I'm just replying here to piggyback on the top comment and create a pointer to this thread in my CheckRepliesToMyComments page.

Obligatory xkcd reference.

I always assumed [-] subtracted a point from that comment.

I thought you had to click the [-]. How do I press the [-]?

It’s missing a comment from someone who dismisses someone else’s comment by starting with “Ehhhh no.” It’s also missing someone making a funny joke and then being downvoted because HN comments need to be serious contributions to the topic.

Really missing n-gate.com. It was good. Hope he's alright

An internet attempts a third-rate mockery of Hackernews. Hackernews pulls a "this, but unironically", earnestly replicating every joke comment in the original article, right down to the obligatory XKCD.
