Here's my list of submissions: https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=ben_w Of those ten: • 6 had zero comments, 1 had only my own comment • 1 had 7 • 1 had 17 • 1 had 148 I have no reason to think there's a nationality thing here, stuff just falls off the top fast and most people don't comment or upvote… same as with most comments themselves. | ||||||||

? You're making a generalization / judgment based on... the amount of comments left only two hours after it was posted, late at night in the US and early in the morning in Europe. It's also very much a meta-comment instead of something substantial about the subject at hand, which isn't encouraging discussion about the thing itself but actually draws the focus on it being Chinese, which most people weren't even aware of until you drew attention to it. | ||||||||

Really don't think that's the case. I don't care who makes things at first; I first want to see if they are interesting and then maybe dig deeper. Looks cool, upvoted and bookmarked to wait for the playable demo. | ||||||||

Yeah, no. It's posted at midnight on Thursday (eastern time). It's mobile unfriendly, hard to read, and has no videos. The other models had playable demos and videos, and they were posted in the middle of the day so we could think about it during work. The hype wave for this stuff is going to require bigger splashes for each new model. New image-to-3D models garner a yawn, and it's going to be the same here soon. These folks put a lot of thought into their branding (and CSS), but they kind of let the excitement fizzle as there's nothing to look at and evaluate. We just have to trust that they did things? It's a bunch of pictures of a car and green text. It's far too late to open the paper. Basically they just don't excel at marketing. 3/10. Edit: I had no idea this was Chinese until you said it. The page doesn't mention names at top, and it didn't suck me into the paper. | ||||||||
