Why does anybody come to HN, except to find articles to read?

It is simply an observation. There was apparently no overlapping term from say, network engineering, or dramaturgy, to confuse the search. Contrast with "Go (programming language) - Wikipedia" which led to the invention of "golang" as a keyword so that programmers could search out programming articles for that language efficiently.

BTW I did enjoy reading the article I found on "two-part greeting." [1]

Why does anyone visit a recipe site except to read half a novel about how the author remembers his childhood when dunking madeleines in their linden-flower tea? ;-)
