Can we not do this on HN, please?

    Funny HN design detail: Once a comment has been added to a comment, the original commenter can't delete it's comment.

    Sometimes this is counterproductive to the goal of HN.

      It is unfortunate sometimes. Probably a net gain to the signal-to-noise ratio, though?

        I think it's a bad design. There should be a window of a few minutes to override it.

        I made a rash comment (not a very bad one, but I introduced politics for no reason), very quickly regretted it, but you were faster.

        Now many people will read this idiotic exchange instead of doing something more productive.
