Hacker News Reader

The funny thing is that I was a creative writing major at the time and already knew of him. Of course, I didn't know what he looked like but as soon as he admitted being published, I immediately said, "Oh, you're GORE Vidal, not George Vidal." He laughed.

Yet here on HN we find an article by Camila Paglia on Gore Vidal. Very interesting to see literati here. Is is a shame not to see more discussion. Oh well on to the next google AMP sux post

It is apparent to me that someone at HN is putting a thumb on the scale, probably dang, who as I recall has a degree in the liberal arts. I am totally fine with these bonus posts, many of which I ignore. I really love the curation of Hacker News.

Please don't toxic up HN threads like this. The mistake in your comment is obvious if one simply reads the parent.

Edit: can you please stop posting unsubstantive comments generally? We're trying for a bit better than internet defaults here.

You’re right. My apologies.

Appreciated. It led to an interesting reply from clivestaples, so there's that.

Take note of what the poster said the name on the ticket was.

Yes
