A more relaxed analogy to a music band has often come to mind. There's certainly a place in the world for a successful 83-piece orchestra but the piece is mostly written by a single composer. Plus, concerts most people go to today are to see smaller bands. I did notice a strange thing about my earlier comment though. When I read an HN article in the morning I'm much more apt to write a comment or response. An argument seems to be quickly evaluated based on its feasibility rather than how rewarding it is. It's the opposite in the evenings. As a model at least, it kind of explains why I'm writing such a thoughtful explanation tonight, after having been downvoted without an explanation that morning.
