I've noticed in myself a trend: I'll read the first few graphs and then, once I figure out whether I agree with the author or not, either ditch the whole story or just go upvote it. I assume other people do the same. It's not a good thing to do. I think the site would be much more useful if it were just Ask/Tell/Show HN stories with some kind of meta filtering on top. How do I find a cofounder? What's the best way to measure traction? How do all these startups get so much media attention? Is there some way to navigate from those questions to all the discussions about it that we've had on HN? If so, and if you could do that with a 100 startup-related issues, it'd be a hell of a more useful site than all the gossip and drama that we end up with.
