Masturbatory nonsense. Don't waste your time. If HN allowed me to pay 100 karma points to downvote, I would use them here.

- Fnoord 9y ago> Masturbatory nonsense Thank you for your thought provoking analysis. Why masturbatory nonsense? Yes, the article is rose-tinted because it doesn't describe issues in German society; it is one-sided. However, that's obviously clear from reading it. It doesn't pretend to be otherwise. There's already at least 2 comments which nuance the article. Furthermore, the article's purpose appears to be meant as a counter-thought of the "American Dream" (apparently that's now called "Silicon Valley" because very little in the article was about technology).
