I think HN should probably stay the course. The current guidelines attract interesting and insightful comments and thought provoking stories. You can teach things through humor and not every academic discussion has to be dry. So why not add humor to something insightful? Because that raises the bar and I think that's what we want. If we just add humor/fun posts, we've just lowered the bar and then invite low effort posts and comments.
