This marks the second time that I've read an article linked on Hacker News, come away with the impression that it was written by a raving lunatic conspiracy theorist, followed the "comments" here, and discovered that it was written by this same author. Has anybody else here had the same experience? This confirms to me that I don't have any personal bias against this guy (since I'm reading his articles blind). I just can't find any common ground from which to empathize with anything he has yet written. He's somewhat well known, is he not? Is all of his writing like this?
