I hope that every HN poster that loves to complain about Atwood's blog articles here reads this article.
You can accurately say that the message of this article, like many of his articles, is completely obvious. However, the typical HN response to his articles also points out that sometimes the completely obvious points can go unheeded.
- absconditus 17y agoJeff does not help his case by being completely wrong much of the time and lacking insight the rest of the time. Many of us just assume that he is trying to drive traffic to his blog while wasting his audience's time.
- gamache 17y agoThere is a difference though; those of us who complain about inane CodingHorror submissions don't submit CodingHorror links. We're trying to Just Not Look already. If the CodingHorror links disappeared from HN, I don't think you'd see CodingHorror discussion threads just so we could complain some more.
