alt Hacker NewsIt's interesting you suggest a two week sprint for this. How large do you think HNs development team is, do you know if they even have a single full time developer?
I don't but the lack of changes in the basic functionality of the site in the number of years I've used it make me feel that they may not have any/many full time devs working on it...
I really don't think the site is like this because they lack capacity. It's pretty clearly an intentional design choice in my view, like with Craigslist.
But no, I do not have any information on their staffing situation. I presume you don't either though, do you?
