I would like to sort comments by the level of the author’s expertise in whatever they are discussing. HN is a goldmine, but finding valuable knowledge within heated or elaborate discussions requires too much commitment to read through everything.

A weighted number of a comment’s upvotes is one signal. However, I can often tell when an author has deep knowledge or comprehensive experience with a subject just by reading their comment.

Do you think it might be possible to automate that kind of judgment?

It looks like a case of managerial miscommunication. Entropic seems to have expected that sending emails with higher budget estimates would give DEFCON the opportunity to say no if they did not agree, and took the lack of response as a sign of DEFCON’s agreement to the new budget. DEFCON seems to have either not read or ignored those emails and expected Entropic to work within the originally agreed-upon budget.
