Thought the same thing. At work I'm encouraged to be active online in places like HN and to read relevant articles and so on.

  That's awesome. Does it make you a better coder?

    Me too.. I'm sort of the HN-rep for our group.. and yeah, it's good for me as a coder and for us as a group to keep in touch with what's happening in the tech world.

    Absolutely. I'm not sure how following the industry and contributing to open source projects could not make you better programmer.
