Normally, when you get that much comments, one of the things I like about Hacker News is when you get a lot of comments on things. When the comments exceed the upvotes, a story gets more or less automatically killed. It gets automatically removed from the front page, which I actually think is a great... A great, very simple algorithm. Yeah, indicator of hot-taken-ness or whatever. Hot-taken-ness.
