What do you want to do with this information ?

Getting downvoted in HN is not very hard. You can mention how Bill Gates is trying to buy a stairway to heaven or that Rust should replace C and you'll get spanked. If you express personnal opinions enough times on a website full of intellectuals you are bound to displease regularly unless you have nothing interesting to say.

It's a good thing. You can't be right all the time. You can't agree all the time. Actually, quite often you won't.

But to be downvoted spectacularly, it's quite easy: promote religion, or borderline sexist/racism allusions and you're it. Doesn't matter if you are right or not.

On the other end you can be pretty much who you want to be. I mean I worked in porn and had only one snarky remark about it during the last years.

I mainly want to see what people are like who are effective but also don't care about being downvoted.
