...and yet it has 17 points only being posted 16 minutes ago. Is PG working at all on an algorithm that takes into consideration factors such as the repetition with which certain accounts vote up a link (or a group of accounts) and inversely weigh that against other links sumbitted? Possibly implementing the results via the Fisher Method / Bayesian rank of some kind? As the noise to signal ratio has widened with HN's popularity I find it harder to see the 'good stuff' bubble to the top.

Why am I not surprised I'm being downvoted. Links like this, and the response they get (46 votes now) take away valuable space from fresh, timely and relevant articles yet HN can just as easily be gamed as Digg/Reddit to allow this to happen.

Good point. I'll update the title.

[edit] title updated

Please read http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and edit accordingly. Something like "The Mozilla Developer Center's JavaScript Guide" would be a good title.

The linkbait title was ripped straight from reddit where it was also a bad title.

I think the title is fine as it is now ... makes it clear that this isn't just another JavaScript guide/tutorial.

I disagree. The title is against HN's posting guidelines. It's also not unanimous, as even in the comments here people have suggested other ways to learn JS that they feel are superior.

Noting in the title that this is Mozilla's JS reference is enough to give it credence and is still objective.
