I really dislike this submission (flagged). It's facile humour, but only just barely funny. I found myself wishing people who upvoted it could be banished. But that thought gave me another.
What would a layering / segmentation of HN users look like? Imagine the voting history of HN users on certain types of articles was used to classify them, and each classification of user saw a version of HN customized to only users of their classification, including front page articles, comment and new submissions, in a transparent way similar to hell-banning?
Probably too elitist and conducive to groupthink, but worth an idle ponder.
