As the submitter of this story, I can tell you about why this one landed there. I found the link via the discussion on the previous one (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30917772 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30917772) and submitted it shortly afterwards (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30929823 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30929823). It didn't end up on the frontpage though, but I got invited to submit it to the "second chance pool" (https://news.ycombinator.com/invited https://news.ycombinator.com/invited) where submissions get exposed to the frontpage for X hours and if they manage to stay up, they stay there naturally. Seems like people enjoy your writing enough to make it stay for at least some moments :) As a Clojure fanatic, I too enjoy your writing and hoped to stir up some interesting discussions around Clojures weak-points by submitting this story.
