A bit meta, but that is a good reason to read things on HN. We (or I, at least) get to know lots of interesting things other people are doing and ponder whether we're on the right place or perhaps could be happier doing something else.
- resonious 5y agoI feel like this is also the reason I use HN. Admittedly, though, sometimes I feel like it exacerbates my decision paralysis. Whenever I worry about whether or not I'm doing the "best" thing, I'll hit HN. Usually it just results in wasted time, but that one occasional boost just keeps me coming. Intermittent reinforcement at its finest.
