Why is the DaringFireball article here? and why does it have a 100 votes? The guy has just quoted the Wired article without adding anything on his own?

Why is the DaringFireball article here? and why does it have a 100 votes? The guy has just quoted the Wired article without adding anything on his own?
- tlrobinson 16y agoBecause it highlights the most interesting points of a much longer article? I'm no Daring Fireball fanboy (the 1st derivative of an Apple fanboy?) but there is sometimes value in aggregation and summarization.
- wallflower 16y ago> sometimes value in aggregation What do you think of http://kottke.org http://kottke.org ?
- jesseendahl 16y agoIt is particularly odd since the actual Wired article was already on the front page of HN when this was submitted.
- wallflower 16y agoThe power of a headline that grabs your focus
- xutopia 16y agoHe saves us time that's why.
- jarek 16y agoIf your time was that valuable, you wouldn't be reading HN right now.
- adamhowell 16y agoBlindly working heads down in an industry you know nothing about because you don't stay up-to-date isn't a good use of your time, either.
- treblig 16y agoAgreed, but it's "Daring Fireball".
