Just stop reading if those words doens't mean anything to you.
I don't think this is in the spirit of your typical Hacker News reader. HN readers are naturally curious, but with the volume of what comes across, it can be really hard to decipher if something would be of interest or value just based on the title or page 1.
For me, it's just not possible to read very deeply on everything that seems interesting, and it would be helpful to get a summary sentence or two for posts that are non-trivial.
