       | Love the speed, layout, and dark mode.
       | 
       | But without accounts/voting, how is spam dealt with? It seems a
       | number of stories in the current top ten aren't related to
       | financial news. And without commenting, the most valuable part
       | may be lost (HN comments are often much better than the linked
       | stories).

       | I'm missing some of the "brewing financial storm" in some of the
       | stories/linked on the front page of this site. It's also ~50%
       | Forbes "sites" articles, which HN has repeatedly and correctly
       | noted often lack basic editorial and factchecking oversight.

       | Huh.
       | 
       | What does "Los Angeles Lakers Running Out Of Excuses Following
       | Latest Losing Streak" - currently number 5 in the list - have to
       | do with the brewing financial storm?

       | Let's call a spade a spade: this is an HN clone for stories about
       | the financial world and their interlocutors. Which is great!
       | 
       | But what's the obsession with risk here and how exactly does that
       | (functionally*) factor into the sites ethos?
       | 
       | Also, who said there's a financial storm coming?
       | 
       | Cool site, but the FUD seems disingenuous at best.

         | I think they're trying to mix HN with a Bloomberg Terminal
         | style feel. Then do some aggregation of topics into the right
         | bar? I can see this making sense if you have this pulled up and
         | see a topic soar to the top of the pile on the right hand side?

         | Personally, to me it sounds like some more of the same fear
         | mongering crap. Most likely baseless and useless besides for
         | bringing in the operators revenue
