> Mocking the job. Often a big circle jerk we have to moderate

That's pretty much what I would expect to see. Ever clicked the link to discuss an ad on reddit? It's rare that someone commented because they had something nice to say.

What if job postings were a weekly thread here, where people could comment on all of them/talk about other positions, etc? There might be more useful discussion to be had in a general jobs thread.




There are general jobs threads posted monthly (two of them — "Who is hiring?" and "Freelancer? Seeking freelancer?"). These comment-less job posts are a special privilege of YC companies that offers greater visibility.


The thing with the monthly threads is that there is rarely a followup on the questions.


Oh you're right, I forgot about those threads.
