It's not an "if you do this, I hate you" post, it's a "I'm sick and tired of Western media focusing on only the nuclear plant when there are so many other things that they could write about, like this amazing story of a man who saved lives" post. That's a bit verbose for a headline, though. I wouldn't know what reddit's like since I've barely ever been there. I don't see where the verbosity of the content linked has anything to do with anything on HN. For example, in the last 10 hours, I've seen: "programming motherfucker," which was a large meme, a page with nothing but three or four bar charts and no analysis, several short blog/opinion posts... So I don't know why HN should be focused on the length of a post or how many words are used in it rather than the content. Finally, there are plenty of sensational headlines on HN. Off the top of my head, I remember "Bag of Hurt," "Rip-Off Express," "Are Happy People Dumb," "Limitless Brain Power Possible," and I'm sure there are thousands of others that I don't actually remember. I do remember just yesterday, I was sitting here thinking that some headlines seemed really sensational just to get people to click. I think it was even James Altucher, who is often linked here, that admitted in a blog post that he makes sensational headlines that have nothing to do with his actual content, and those are often linked here!
