I hate the censoring of comments on reddit & news.yc. It seems contrary to the entrepreneurial mindset.

If Steve Jobs got on a board like this in the '70s, and announced that he was going to start a company building PCs when mainframes were sexy, he probably would've been downvoted too.


Ok, I might've over reacted there. I should've said I LOVE everything about News.YC except the censoring of down-voted comments :)

Regardless, it looks like other comments w/ negative karma are grayed out (like http://news.ycombinator.com/comments?id=13764 ). So I imagine this comment was probably deleted by the author...


Can anyone explain what is exactly so great about this idea?

It's the 90's all over again...
