It's weird how highly upvoted comments on r/prog are nearly always super wrong. I don't mind the comments, but why do people upvote them?pic.twitter.com/qxngnIKSQG

they usually don't. 90% of the time the correction gets 1/10th or 1/100th of the votes of the bad info
and if the person with bad info replies, the correction often gets downvoted. People love bogus info r/programming.

do people rely on the scores that much? You always read the replies and make your own assessment on who is right
