It was fun / exciting to see it work, plus from all the emails I got there was a lot of interest. I personally enjoy the collaborative nature of Hacker News, although these posts are also interesting and highlight the breadth of knowledge here.

From the list in the post, my personal favorite was meeting Rick Jay: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18555353
