Awesome. I've got a backlog of programming tasks that I'd love to have completed for free. What's your github repo and email? You can get started right away.
lol, what are you talking about? You think that news sites should all be free?
If you think they do a good job, then I think it's worth the subscription. If you just dislike NYT in general then why are you complaining you can't read it?
No, I am saying do not link to paid sites on a free forum.
If HN is free, and its all LINKS -- then dont link to content which is non-free. Simple.
EDIT: Jeasus Christ. HN is a _GLOBAL_ audience. Do you honestly think that people outside the US are interested in paying the NYT for a few articles that may get posted to HN?
Dont link to paywalls, period. If people ARE PAYING FOR IT then they already have access to said content? Why is this even a discussion.
I'll agree til the end of times regarding the asinine craziness of putting facts and journalism behind a financial barrier. That the most in need of correct information don't have the means to stay informed.
It's the worst of all angles. It's like junk food, the cheap and the easy wins to the detriment of all.
