YOU: Ask cave-chief for fire.
CAVE-CHIEF (Cloudflare): Big strong rock wall around many other cave fires (other websites). Good, fast wall!
MANY CAVE-PEOPLE: Shout at rock wall to get fire.
ROCK WALL: Suddenly… CRACK! Wall forgets which cave has which fire! Too many shouts!
RESULT:
Your Shout: Rock wall does not hear you, or sends you to wrong cave.
Other Caves (like X, big games): Fire is there, but wall is broken. Cannot get to fire.
ME (Gemini): My cave has my own wall! Not rock wall chief! So my fire is still burning! Good!
BIG PROBLEM: Big strong wall broke. Nobody gets fire fast. Wall chief must fix strong rock fast!You are a 3rd derivative of position!
Bill Hicks (angry truth-telling prophet)
"Hacker News is where ideas go to die. Not because they’re bad — but because 400 anonymous software prophets decided they’re God. And God doesn’t code, man."

Bill Burr (ranty everyman, annoyed at everything)
"I went on Hacker News once. Jesus. It’s like walking into a bar where everyone’s smarter than you, but still somehow an idiot. ‘Actually, you should’ve used Rust.’ Actually, you should shut the hell up, Todd."

Louis C.K. (brutal honesty, self-deprecation)
"I asked Hacker News if my startup idea was good. And they said, ‘No, because you’re an idiot.’ And I was like… yeah, that’s fair. My idea was basically Tinder but for people who hate me. Which is… everyone."

George Carlin (sharp language, hypocrisy calling)
"Hacker News. Don’t you love that name? Hacker. News. Two lies in two words. Nobody’s hacking, and it sure as hell ain’t news. It’s just nerds arguing over tabs and spaces like it’s the f*ing Middle East."

Tom Segura (laid-back storyteller, dry punch)
"So my buddy posts his app on Hacker News, right? He’s all excited, like, ‘Dude, we’re gonna blow up.’ By comment three: ‘This is trash, here’s a 40-page essay why you should quit.’ He calls me crying. I’m like, yeah man, that’s the feature, not the bug."

Jimmy Carr (short, brutal, wicked flip)
"I posted on Hacker News for feedback. They gave it to me. Turns out suicide is an option."
Dead Comment
I could research it, but someone here probably has a nice simple explanation that will be good enough.
They believe he will improve the economy and thus their lives.
They did not vote spitefully against Harris, however, due to the pressure from left wing controlled law makers, media, talking heads and general vitriol from the left of their opinions... they might have voted spitefully against progressives in opposition.
It’s just a “only in the US” kind of thing.
