This would be useful. As of right now it looks like HN is leaving that sort of analysis up to its users. Which is fine. But if this is going to be the case then a coordinated effort is necessary to help spring the mods to action.
But because of their "business model", they seem to care now only about retaining a critical mass of users (over everything else), nevermind that a large percentage of them are just worthless bots/shills/propagandists/etc. This is the poison pill for all social networks.
Basically, they have given up on their initial slogan of "news for hackers" and have now become a catch-all bucket with a heavy emphasis on everything AI which is rather a shame.
My general gripe with the level of discourse here isn't necessarily topical as much it is based on my impression that the community has reached some sort of Dunning-Kruger-Dunbar number where the threshold of people knowledgeable in some areas who engage in curious debate in other areas has been breached by people who think the purpose of the site is winning arguments/handwringing and other nefarious actors.
