Earlier quoted context omitted.

HN: All of the negativity and toxicity of a Reddit discussion, without having to get disturbed by something as unproductive as smiling or a laughing ! In all seriousness, the average HN comment thread feel a lot less pleasant than the average Reddit thread. Granted, Reddit has way worse places, but comparing HN to all of Reddit is illogical - HN compares more to a single (large/active) subreddit.

> In all seriousness, the average HN comment thread feel a lot less pleasant than the average Reddit thread. I disagree strongly actually. HN'ers to me make sense, in many ways. Redditors are a crap shoot. I go in with the HN mindset on Reddit and it's 50% reasonable and 50% "what the hell am I reading?" HN is 95% reasonable. I understand that to some it's an acquired taste but it was home to me from the moment I dis…

This made me realise that I want Tinder but for arbitrary content and able to be shared via links - photos, restaurants, date and times, or whatever. Create a Google Drive folder for your trip photos, sync it with OAuth, send a link to your group chat, and share the ones that everyone liked.

I dunno I would feel awkward swiping pics of your wife all day, especially if my gf caught me doing it.

What if his girlfriend caught him swiping right on his wife? Mayhem

This is why we have the day phone and the night phone, people.

A tender is the cart that contains the coal in steam locomotives, so it's a burden you can't get rid of. Not sure if my wife would appreciate that (if I had one)
