Okay sorry and I didn't realize you had that capability for moderation, pretty helpful that you can isolate child threads.

One thing I want to question is how to criticize and steer discussion away from certain directions on this site? HN is widely known for the pedantic and non sequitur directions that discussions go, as ridiculous opinions get elevated and non-comforming opinions get downvoted to oblivion but not based on correctness or relevance.

Thoughts? I often speak in hyperbole to highlight the absurdity of other people's opinions, but that doesn't seem compatible with the mod's ideals for this site
