While I agree about the tiptoe part I have an instinctive negative reaction to the nudge argument.
I do not see a clear difference between "What every X should know about Y", "Programmers hate this one weird gamma trick" and "top 10 crazy gamma hacks".
Sure, it might make more people read the article, but that is just clickbait.
My point was mostly that the title was clickbaity and (IMO) incorrent. There are some things that I think all programmers should know, but it's not much at all. I just wish HN level articles would be more descriptive in their titles. I don't need the nudge, I'll read what interests me.
