Good advice for any "newbie" is to stil back and pay lots of attention first. Get a feel for the norms of the site, and also for the sometimes non-obvious taboos as well. One tip: most people like HN because it can be a good source of non-mainstream tech news and info. While some of the stuff coming out of CES is interesting, the "Consumer" aspect of CES also means that it's covered end-to-end by dozens of tech journals. CES news is almost inescapable, and so probably not the optimal sort of thing to post to HN. Second tip: posts whining about your karma hits or inability to grasp the flow of HN also do not yield you a lot of love. |

but post and threads publicly flaming someone for making newbies mistakes does give you a lot of karma love I see.
