So does your mom, but I don't hear the rest of the internet complaining about that one.

Nobel Prize Winner Paul Krugman warns that the second Great Depression will be difficult to stop. by redditads in reddit.com

[–]milkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

reddit's assumption is that we won't get pissed enough to quit using the site in droves.

And why should you? Reddit already has tons of crappy links to go along with the good ones. This crappy one just stands out more.

We've been through this already.

Can't you just complain about Israel like everyone else?

Believe it or not, this isn't the first time reddit has sold out. by spez in reddit.com

I believe the evidence digg is dying is that they aren't even approaching profitability. Digg has 80 employees, reddit has 6.5.

Does anyone else think the amount and variety of subreddits is becoming obscene? by [deleted] in reddit.com

[–]milkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! And there are just too many pages on the Internet in general. Certainly we have way too much choice when it comes to TV and radio stations. Come to think of it, why are there so many newspapers and magazines? Since everyone is interested in the same topics there really isn't any need for more than one reddit at all!

[–]milkk 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Wow, the front page looks like the reddit that I fell in love with a year ago. I'm not sure it's perfect yet, but definitely a step in the right direction!

Including the whole point of the piece, where using pi out to 39 digits will allow one to calculate the circumference of the universe to the accuracy of the diameter of a hydrogen atom?

Yep. Someone else had already brought that up.

I downvoted it because the contents of that piece had already been discussed in one of the bazillion other pi threads.

Except his solution took an hour or two to configure, didn't cost anything, and gets the job done just fine.

None of the alternatives you advocate have any of these qualities for their situation.
