If you write something that we would love, or sparks an awesome discussion - it is your DUTY to submit it :D. The goal here is to find interesting stories, not get "white knight points" for refusing to post your own content. I submitted many of my own articles here and they have trended.

Since HN is the way I get information, it is hard for me to pitch anything novel since whenever I come with content that I want to share, I search and somebody already submitted it :/.
