- Sahhaese 8y agoYes, this doesn't strike me as good quality content at all. But it's a large list which lets everyone pick something and chip in which drives engagement. If this sort of content is the sort that this community increasingly selects for then it is perhaps time to look for fresh pastures. ( I don't however know if this indicative of HN's current community or just an 'accident' - I'm sure there have always been examples of poor quality near the top at times).
- billfruit 8y agoI think not just this one, a few of the top ones are of similar vein at the moment. Seems a bit off-colour, as usually the quality of content was rather consistent.
- scriptkiddy 8y agoI disagree. The article itself may not have much meat to it, but the discussion it has sparked is definitely worth the time to read. There is a lot of back and forth in the comments about software design and workflow practices. I think this kind of discourse is extremely valuable.
- squirrelicus 8y agoThey might be catch phrase, but that doesn't make them inaccurate.
