Hi! Author of the post here. Much as I'm happy to have this go around again, this is actually a dupe, and has been very extensively discussed on HN before: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2657745 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2657745 The reason it has a different URL now is a long story: my hosting provider had a meltdown and I was less than religious about backups for my personal blog (oh, the shame!) so I lost timestamp information on this and a few other posts, as well as all the original comments. So it looks like I posted this a month ago, but it's actually more than 3 months old. Anyway, feel free to argue about this all over again -- it's new to you. I just felt I'd post so nobody who remembers this the first time around thinks I'm intentionally trying to game HN.
