Yeah, you might get disoriented and throw up if they didn't smooth it out.

Is this list comprehensive?

I don’t see any obvious evidence of bot activity on that thread (and all of my spot checks strongly leaned human). Were some comments removed or something?

I imagine the reputational and potential legal consequences would be fairly severe if this sort of privacy invasion were discovered (either by employee leak or reverse engineering). Seems unlikely Meta would take a risk like this.

This modification works for me: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/443687-hn-favicons. It uses GM.addElement to bypass CSP restrictions.

This reminds me of Manning liveBook's obfuscation strategy [0]. It scrambles the letters to keep the majority of the specific details obfuscated while somewhat revealing the gist (word length, acronyms, anagrams, code segments) presumably to encourage sales and discourage piracy.

I experienced a somewhat comical bug where the Reddit recap chose my most downvoted comment as my "Comment to end all comments" (probably because its absolute value was greatest). Seems unlikely that this was an intentional easter egg (it was accompanied with "Out of all the comments you made in 2021, this one sure got a lot of upvotes").
Also, I just discovered that the built-in screenshot generator for Reddit recap is broken as it only captures the rendered portion of each card, leaving out the scrollable overflow.
This case alone offers a strong testament to the poor quality of most Reddit features.

There is the problem of "OLED smearing"[0] with pure black that makes using it somewhat unviable. It seems that some OLEDs are more susceptible than others, though. Also fairly certain that this only happens with #000.

How is 27 counterintuitive?
> Let alpha = 0.110001000000000000000001000..., where the 1's occur in the n! place, for each n. Then alpha is transcendental. (Calculus, 4th edition by Michael Spivak)
Nearly all infinite sums involving factorial are transcendental.

If you object to all the author's points, do you also object to the fact that .org domains are not always reputable? If so, then this website must be reputable, and therefore all of its points are true. But, unfortunately, the website itself asserts that not all .org domains are reputable.
