So long as you define 'mature' to mean 'in line with the average HN reader's ego and self-image', you're pretty much on point.
That may be the case, but I appreciate it nonetheless - most posters are pretty good at avoiding jokes at the OP's expense, for example, which contributes to HN's relatively good community.
And yes, I realize I just called a Monty Python and the Holy Grail reference mature.
