buried

I hope op reads this, buried in all the other comments. Please, for the sake of everyone, dust yourself off and opt out again.

I banned the sockpuppets and buried this post. I've also banned the site, at least until we get a promise that this will never happen again.

Not in comments, buried in random threads, but in somewhere prominent on the site. Like, for instance, the guidelines.

It was just buried in the attic and I forgot about it. If I try to buy something on Amazon, this service would remind me that I already own it and ship it to me.

This time, I looked up, and all 10 or so of the people waiting in the show were literally buried, absorbed in their smart phones, and the shop stood stark silence. The people on their own, the kids, the parents, the couples, the whole damn lot.

In essence: this is not a project to be ignored, spat on, or buried far too soon. This is a growing project with growing potential, so let's be hackers for just a moment now and help build the open future.

Lots of important email is now out of view from the primary inbox and buried with unimportant crap. This is so far from what I want I can't even recognize who GMail is trying to target with this.

To be able to know that in 15 mile an hour wind, with your ball half buried by sand, and water in front of the green, how would one hit that shot? There are millions of variations of what you could end up with on the golf course, none that could be figured out in 10,000 hours.

You ask an engineer to test something and that something is buried inside a bunch of silicon and the only way to do that is to build some stuff in there that lets you look at things. Of course you can do this in a 'smart' way, and in a 'stupid' way.

It's buried close to the bottom: "About half [of Preston's] book sales used to come from Amazon. But since the retailer started discouraging orders, his paperback sales are down 61 percent and his e-book sales are down 62 percent."

Nor can I make up for the falling consumption of the vast majority of middle-class families that are barely squeaking by, buried by spiraling costs, and trapped by stagnant or declining wages." 7."

That physical presence reminds you to use it when you're in the kitchen, where an app buried on the last page of the home screen is easy to forget. The camera-based barcode scanners like the one built into the Amazon mobile app are significantly more difficult to use than laser scanners.

With Outlook, I regularly lose important mail because it is buried under the difficult to filter masses of other email. I could go on about how the lack of robust collaboration facilities are a direct time waster for my team, but I don't want to hijack this thread further...

That being said, the ideas present in this book aren't completely without merit, it's just that the few actually useful and interesting nuggets are buried in far too much polemic brow beating.

Naturally this is buried four paragraphs down. The database, which was compromised between late February and\n early March, included eBay customers’ name, encrypted password,\n email address, physical address, phone number and date of birth.

The problem with this approach is that late commenters are less likely to be able to meaningfully contribute to a discussion, because their comment is likely to be buried. One thing interesting about the way FB feed appears to work is that they use randomization to test the signal strength of new posts.

That is when it purportedly complied by placing a teeny link buried at the bottom of its UK home page that linked to a text that, within the disclosure itself, bombarded the reader with all the reasons why Samsung really did infringe notwithstanding the UK judgment that had been rendered against Apple. A few thoughts: 1.

This is partially because they only work well on totally flat terrain and rapidly lose effectiveness in rougher terrain where a large number of mines are typically buried. In practice, solutions like this achieve only 50-60% effectiveness at clearing minefields, which makes them useless for civilian demining which demands a 99% clearance rate.

Alternatively, if your post does get buried, it might be because you bald-faced assert that people who don't agree with you lack learning, can't accept reality, don't know what a state is, and are living in a make-believe fairy tale land. In other words, "if you disagree, you're a big stoopid thicko". You're clearly not up for reasonable discussion, you're just soap-boxing. Well, that and whining about the possibility of being buried, as some kind of reverse-psychology downmod defence.

Below, Babuskov raised the point that the endorsement system will obstruct useful back-and-forth discussions between sub-kilokarma users in buried threads that often takes the place of a private messaging system on HN. This would fix that more effectively than merely reducing the endorsement requirement. You should not entertain any illusions that you can flip the switch and watch this system work perfectly, and that you will therefore be able to avoid confusing people with many changes over a lengthy period of time.
