Hello,


I've noticed only few votes and activity on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7336616 (at least compared to reddit, twitter etc).

I encourage you all to get on hackernews. It's a solid geek news site with a lot of visibility. Articles there scroll by quicker than on reddit, but those that stay do enjoy a lot of hits.


Thanks,

Andrei

The submission is marked as [dead]. I think it was killed by a moderator.

You will see me there as pjmlp.

Many times complaining about C's design support for the security industry or Go thin design. :)

No. I can only guess that it struck a moderator as spammish.

I think mentioning registration discounts in the title was not helpful. I think a better title would have been "D programming language 2014 conference: schedule announced" or something like that.

I was the very first one. :) I think hackernews isn't such a site with a lot of geeks in there doing F5 on page like was before. I think they guys moved on to some other place, to reddit. It's IMHO. You're not the first one to get low up-votes in his submit.

Apparently this post didn't get deleted, right? But it clearly didn't make it to the big leagues, I see it in position 205 now.
