Comment by mh- 1 day ago Can we not do this on HN, please? 4 comments mh- Reply lysace 1 day ago Funny HN design detail: Once a comment has been added to a comment, the original commenter can't delete it's comment.Sometimes this is counterproductive to the goal of HN. mh- 1 day ago It is unfortunate sometimes. Probably a net gain to the signal-to-noise ratio, though? lysace 1 day ago I think it's a bad design. There should be a window of a few minutes to override it.I made a rash comment (not a very bad one, but I introduced politics for no reason), very quickly regretted it, but you were faster.Now many people will read this idiotic exchange instead of doing something more productive.
