What purpose does posting that serve? I think we've already pretty clearly established the flaw is real. What does intruding on the personal life of an unrelated person have to do with it? Do we really need rules saying "don't post other people's non-public personal details" like Reddit? Someone needs to tell you that?

You guys are huge cock suckers... You just upvoted a database leaking millions of people's phone number but when somebody posts Zuck's phone number... Oh no! You should delete that. He's not a king guys.

  HN is not a monolith. You are implying hypocrisy where none necessarily exists. The leaked database: doesn't have full phone numbers and I don't think it should have been posted either -- I didn't upvote it. Nobody should have their personal contact details posted against their wishes. I do not particularly care about Mark Zuckerberg.

  The database is censored (XX instead of the last two numbers of each number)

  like other people are saying -- HN is news by committee. just try to post a joke on here one day & see how many rapid downvotes it gets if you ever need proof of how lame & uptight the HN crowd can be once they hit that 500 rep. i posted a joke on a comment of someone going "This. A million times this." the other day cuz that is the most melodramatic, overused, annoying, lame textual meme... the joke was pretty innocuous & immediately got like 5 downvotes. I don't mean to hate too hard cuz it is what it is, i dont care about my karma, & obv its good enough that i still read articles here but posters being annoying/hypocritical/oversensitive/humourless/feeling that they are the protectors of society... very common on HN. I think it is some facet of the nature of people thinking they are real sophisticated by reading HN for some odd reason (basing this on all the wannabe devs I know on social sites who make it a point to mention it constantly in posts like "my fav sites to procrastinate on"), whereas there are lots of higher-level programming communities out there who seem to have less of this self-seriousness. that said, occasionally there is that nice moment of a few reasonable people chatting each other & introducing to tech they may have otherwise overlooked. I'm heavy into Clojure & the other day a Lisper on here pointed me to freenode to get community help rather than SO, for example. It's all percentages, I guess :-/

    feeling that they are the protectors of society... Not society, just the SNR (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio).

      obvious logic, link to wiki for explanation of common term -- u my friend are due for about 5 upvotes in the HN chain of circular validation. i understand it as a way for SNR sure, but mostly its just a way to fade the text of people you disagree with. it doesn't solve much for people who can skim, & it usually just makes me more curious about what got downvoted (some of the comments are very insightful but just pissed off those with normative opinion) im just not into kool-aid drinking & the weird PG (harhar no pun intended) vibe of HN while downvoting & having this weird karma system smacks of lame culty passive aggression, which incidentally is much more offensive to me than actual aggression

  And while we're here, "cock sucker" is not an insult, and my fellow gay hackers and I would prefer if you didn't use it as one.

    And we wonder why no women are in tech...

      Who wonders that, bitch?
    - hnriot 13y ago
      why? can't women in your mind take a joke? The women I know are perfectly capable of hearing phrases like that, they aren't some fragile gender that need to be protected.

        thanks for speaking for your women (best?) friends for us. brave

      Do you know any women? Seriously, most of them are OK when calling assholes (like many of HN users) "cock suckers". You guys need to go out more, since women are more than OK when people swear, you're not talking to toddlers here. Now, this is a comment, not a fucking essay or interview (haha PG fucked up really bad huh? So bad he's gonna have a women only conference). Now I sound like a troll, so I'll shut up, but seriously, women are OK with swearing (that includes all George Carlin's 7 words).
