I would certainly love to see public release of anonymized HN voting data, and some good analysis of these sorts of trends (also on voting patterns in relation to how long a given user has been on HN, and how active that user is, etc

I am not someone who wants HN to change in any great way (a bit more towards the quality, but nothing seismic), but that's precisely my concern when behaviour I have never noticed before I now notice frequently enough for me to comment publicly on it (and risk whatever social penalty comes from questioning something people love)

It's crazy how fast this field moves ! I basically live on HN and between 30%-40% of the terms or metrics I never even heard of (or maybe I just glanced over in the past)I love articles like these, and how they are able to bring me up to speed (at least to some degree) on the "new paradigm" that is AI/LLM

Is this some type of divide between purely making money at YC (which can be dirty, immoral, bordering on criminal etc) and the tech community of HN who are generally against that sort of thing?I mean it's not only crypto; it's dark patterns, privacy invasion etc; HN is generally against that, but probably many YC companies would be dead without them

If yourself or anyone on HN has tips or anecdotes on how to introduce changes â gradually and slowly AND given that it could help the business â I would LOVE to read them!
