This is my final comment.

This account has been abandoned. Mike Dilger has lost faith in the Hacker News community. Mike Dilger would rather engage with retorts and argumentation than downvotes which just amount to an anonymous slap in the face, convey large amounts of emotion but zero information, and are frequently used punitively. BAD DESIGN. Goodbye. Since I can't delete my account I will scramble my password.

I'll give you feedback. Any time I come across a martyr saying "Go ahead and downvote me" I do so whether or not I agree with their position.

[meepmorp]

I downvoted you because of the hissy fit.

It's also a shame that I can't read your comments to see if they were worthy of being at the bottom of the page. Bad design indeed.
