This is excellent! I had envisioned doing something like this but never got around to it. Thank you!
A few ideas for enhancements:
- the ability to sort comments by a user defined formula using karma points, number of comments in thread, and date (Later comments get too many points because the site has grown so much.)
- a few formatting options
- a service than prints hard copies...
AFAIC, anyone who has submitted 100 good comments to Hacker News has effectively "written a book". You may not realize it, but you are an author and an authority on something. You should have hard copies of your pdf (in a pamphlet or handout of some sort) and you should carry a half dozen of them everywhere you go.
It may seem kind of silly, but if you've contributed value here, you should not be ashamed to share it with others, whether they be customers, prospective employers, or anyone you meet networking.
Your top 100 comments (The best of <xxx>) says volumes more about who you are than any resume or business card. You should be proud to share it.
