The headline is sensational, but the interview is good. I've always liked Joel's observation of Usenet nit-picking culture and how it's likely related to easy quoting. I haven't followed discussion about StackExchange site creation and user acquisition models, but I think that Joel's practical, organic approach is good. Although there isn't StackExchange for medical professionals yet, if the growth rates are what they claim, it might be that in the near future there are enough doctors participating in cooking, photography and all the other SE sites, that medical SE site will emerge.
