Meta: I think such black strip moments should be pinned at top of the hacker news while it lasts.

Please no. It would be impossible to decide the cutoff for who deserves it. Loud communities would bring drama when their favourite person doesn't get pinned. A black strip might be fine, though.

  • i think the comment is saying that "if there's a black strip, we should pin the article/news that justified it"

    because there's currently a black strip up but there's no articles about a death on the first page

  • In this case, I had to search for the word died/dead/"no more" to even know who is no more.
