I love HN, but lately I have been sick of reading the same dismissive criticisms over and over again. Along with political arguments that have been litigated to death, people's issues with smooth scrolling on blogs, etc. Many of these comments do not get flagged for whatever reason. So I made a service to automatically classify whether comments violate (a modified form of) the HN guidelines automatically. In addition there's a Chrome extension to collapse these comments (if they violate your score thresholds) so you don't have to read them too. You can also just watch guideline violating comments as they are posted on the home page.

Here's more info on how it works: https://classify.stylometry.net/how-it-works

Very cool. Now all it needs is an automated reporting system for offending comments with a direct line to dang's private inbox. Maybe this functionality can be built into the Chrome extension as well, so users can assist in reporting these utterly despicable comments without having to manually write a report email each and every time?
