Good lord, the author comes out swinging at Paul Graham. I encourage upvoting the article to prove to ourselves that this is a truly open forum (regardless of my or your opinion on it). We cannot believe that without being confident that even a sharp invective towards one of its cofounders can feature on the front page. Otherwise, HN would be more like Al Jazeera, which is one of the best news outlets in the Arab world, but unfortunately is tainted, on the margins, by its inability to criticize its patron Qatari regime. I know other articles disagreeing with Paul Graham have been upvoted, but this is on another level. A free forum is one that is worth your time. Yes, I know there are rules, and that's part of what makes HN so good.
