I see no reason for your comment, specially when the guidelines are clear about these types of contributions.
From http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html 4th paragraph from the bottom
> Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is
> inappropriate for the site. If you think something is spam or offtopic,
> flag it by going to its page and clicking on
> the "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.)
> If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did.
- tptacek 12y agoI disagree with that section of the guidelines.
- groovy2shoes 12y agoI disagree with drug laws, but that doesn't mean I can possess drugs without penalty.
- frou_dh 12y agoYou know that doesn't work since you had to tack on "without penalty". I doubt tptacek expects to be shielded from disagreement and/or downvotes.
- lotsofmangos 12y agoI disagree with you completely about this article not being suitable for HN, but on the other hand, I have to respect this approach to people quoting guidelines.
