Wow! I had a really strange experience there. I read the first post, thought to myself "Wow, this is a terrible troll, the rest of the comments can't be worthwhile", and hit Back. ("make use of open source projects, which is immoral" was the breaking point for me to decide it was a troll).
Then I came back to HN to complain about the troll, read your comment and the others here, and promptly turned around and went over to the site again to actually read the comments. And it's true! It was a very good discussion.
My troll filter isn't very sensitive -- I usually give people the benefit of the doubt -- but it unambiguously went off here.
