- tptacek 3y agoSure. On a long-form journalism story, "can anybody summarize this" comes across as just a longer way of saying "tl;dr".
- renewiltord 3y agoI sometimes do it when I've read something and usually find it easy to do so for others. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35434603 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35434603 is an example I was able to find in 10 s using algolia. Easier to see if payoff is worth it or if you're reading a recipe-like essay. Honestly, this is pretty normal stuff. No reason to be offended. It's not a personal request to you specifically.
- tptacek 3y agoIt can come across as a superficial complaint about the article. But I'm not sniping at you; I'm saying: if you're not interested in reading this article, the summary probably isn't that much more interesting to you. "There was a big Mafia presence in MKE" is pretty much the whole takeaway, to the extent you don't enjoy reading true crime stuff. It's more a reading-for-enjoyment kind of story than a trying-to-educate-you kind of story. The only thing you really missed was some potential enjoyment.
