I always wondered how HN manages to do moderation 24/7 around the clock. Australia makes sense.

A lot of it boils down on dang being oversubscribed. And having some automations to help him

What do you mean by “oversubscribed”?

Automation, sure. But people need to sleep sometime, and maybe also have some life outside HN, for mental health. ;)

I think what comment OP is saying is that dang was working more than was healthy - “oversubscribed” meaning “subscribed above capacity,” i.e. “doing yeoman’s work,” “doing the work of two people,” “that man is like a machine,” “do you ever sleep, dude?” etc
