Going to be down voted for that but after all those discussions of HN readers it is disappointing to see that click-bait titles works the same here than everywhere else
Well site guidelines say to submit the original title, not a clickbait alteration. Mods are good about enforcing that.
Forgive me -- I really didn't know. I've updated the destination article's title.
Wait 1 minute for author to update the original title to the click-bait version
Done, actually. I just thought it was a good title, did not mean to mislead or direct to something that wasn't relevant.
Maybe it's changed, but the title I see doesn't feel clickbait-y. It actually made me think the author was going to have completely failed; I'm glad to see there was some modest success.
Thanks :-)
I think my success is about equal to my work. It is hard to work on something when you're unsure if it will succeed.
They work even better here I would say, people just eat them up. The shorter and more ambiguous the title, the better. No description necessary and you can link straight to a press release.
