As a web dev who cares about clean, short, precise and beautiful URLs, hiding the efforts of my work is frustrating.

#32Really annoying because URLs impart lots of meta information

#33Yes.
Just as I hate the bizarre truncated relative time tagging.
"A month ago" , "15 minutes ago" , "An hour ago" ?! That's f-n useless.
ISO 8601 or die! YYYY:MM:DD hh:mm:ss How hard is that? Just leave the time stamp alone, geeze.

I also dislike the truncated URLs (although I don't use Chrome), and I dislike that truncated relative time tagging too (HN should be corrected to avoid this; perhaps by using the HTML command to specify the exact time, or a user setting or whatever). When saving a local copy or printing out a document, specifying the exact date/time is especially more useful.
