Hacker News Reader

Yeah, I'm hoping it will save me some time. Now I can just send them this link each time I get a message, and if they bother following the link, doing as I say, and writing back then I know they are at least serious and not just fishing.

OP, why bother replying to posts where the recruiter clearly didn't read your profile at all? It's a nice gesture, but the sender is creating work for you by being lazy and off target. An offline version might be responding to junk mail with a note about what you'd really like to buy.

Are you replying on the off chance the spammer is sitting on a cushy job order they haven't mentioned?

I mark-as-read without reading unless I'm actively looking. So why do you open them?
