HN is filled with this kind of crap these days

  It's not crap. It's someone's life. It just makes you (us) feel bad because they appear happier than we are.

    I would agree with you if there wasnt a dozen posts on HN each week along the lines of "[How/Why] I [verb]'d [occupation] to [verb] [activity]"

      Agree

    It's kitschy schlock that makes Horatio Alger look like Voldemort.

    Agree to disagree.

  The "why I dropped to found a startup" genre would be more interesting if we got to see how well it turned out. Most of these stories I've seen are written when the startup still has 0 users. This one claims to have some "traction." I don't see how many users that is, or whether they've built something sustainable yet. But, if anyone dropped out a couple years ago, and has some results to talk about... I'm curious whether these ever turn into something.

    Exactly - every week some douche is writing shit all over the place. Unless they talk about the product this is just pointless information people have to know.
