I Am Sam Altman, President of Y Combinator.  AMA
Sam, I know I'm late, but what a pain it must have been to reply to those questions with so many messy comments with such crappy interface.<p>Don't you think the time has come to stop to fake advertising the success of simplicity and to build a proper HN interface? 
(Just looked at the sources to collapse all subcomments, and I found `<table>` tags, OMG)<p>I understand the whole "it's simple but it works, people use it"-thing, but what's the point, when [dozen of developpers](<a href="https://www.google.fr/search?q=hacker+news+collapse+comments&oq=hacker+new&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i65l3j69i57j69i59.2028j0j4&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=122&ie=UTF-8" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.fr/search?q=hacker+news+collapse+comments...</a>) are willing to make it for you, even for free.<p>Not very inspiring for startup builders either.
