great hack in my opinion...

[plainspace]

Did I do something wrong here? Relatively new to HN. Is this how opinions are treated?

[sgrove]

It just doesn't add anything of value to the conversation. We all know it's a great hack, so it's just white noise to post it.

Not a hugely big deal. Just try to avoid the echo chamber and instead provide unique insight on the subject.

I thought it was a great hack, too. I suppose we should stop passing out opinions here since they get down-modded. Folks, you can just not mod posts that offer no inheriant value to you.

Do you want someone down-modding your posts simply because you are expressing how you feel in the moment and had nothing else valuable to say? I looked specifically at the comments in this post because I wanted to up-mod someone who said "great hack" because I felt the same.

Yes, that's exactly what I want. Based on the vote count, I conclude that I'm not the only one.
