Well part of it is I burn my accounts every couple of months and over time I've gotten fairly good at crafting what I say in a way that more HNers are receptive to. The other reason is because I have a lot of meetings that I need to attend that aren't all that interesting and mindlessly scrolling and commenting on HN keeps me from falling asleep. But sometimes I'll admit to posting things in a way that overstates where I stand on a issue because I've found HN is one of the place I can get a detailed and reasonable answer on where my thinking is faulty. Heck I've had my mind changed multiple times when someone gives additional information to me.
