I am the same person. I mentioned that in my original reply. That’s what I was trying to imply by this comment

> (I seemed to have made the HN gods upset)

I could see the Python in the original link when I asked. It shows up as a clickable link. It doesn’t show when you share it. I had to ask it.



You’re also scarface_74? Not that there’s anything wrong with sockpuppets on HN in the absence of vote manipulation or ban evasion that I know of, I just don’t know why you’d use one in this manner, hence my confusion. Karma management?

I saw a blue icon of some kind on the link you shared but didn’t click it.


I said the reason why, twice now

> I seemed to have made the HN gods upset.

My other account is rate limited for some odd reason. I looked back at my comments and I don’t see anything I said controversial.

The blue link is the Python code that was generated. I guess it doesn’t show in the app.


No worries, that was somewhat ambiguous to me also, and confusing. I thought you might be a different person who had edited their comment after receiving downvotes. I mean, it’s reasonable to assume in most cases that different usernames are different people. Sorry to make you repeat yourself!

Maybe email hn@ycombinator.com to ask about your rate limits as I have encountered similar issues myself in the past and have found dang to be very helpful and informative in every way, even when the cause is valid and/or something I did wrong. #1 admin/mod on the internet imo
