With the cherry picked attacks on the article and author, coupled with the competitiveness of the deeper threads about it on HN (example: 270 pounds? That's nothing! Not following a regimented process? Lack of discipline! Your body's fitness is a useful proxy for positive leadership traits!), I can't help but conclude that the crowd here has validated the article quite nicely.
It's no longer just about being healthy; it's about social and virtue signalling. Even HN in't immune.
