So I'm thinking with these aggregators (reddit, HN, digg) you get a lot more clicks if you say "you" "your" in your title. It think it's kind of manipulative.

- sambeau 16y agoI hope HN doesn't embrace this sensational tone of headline. When I see a headline like this I automatically reduce my expectation and increase my quality bar for pressing that little grey triangle. Not that I think this is a bad article, I'm just unconvinced that it lives up to its patronising headline.
