This is an interesting story, but the thread so far is lame. Please do better. Low-threshold indignation makes for shallow, angry, generic, and therefore boring discussion.

The idea here is: if you have a substantive point to make, make it thoughtfully; if you don't, please don't comment until you do.

This is what excessive moderation looks like.

Disagree. It improves signal to noise ratio.

I come to HN because the discussions often include a few gems where I actually learn something new or hear a perspective I hadn’t considered.

Saying that you’re glad SK is doing this is just noise.
