This site sometimes feels like the Truman show, where each user has to pretend they're not just recycling the same three scripts.

No one ever mentions what I actually love org-mode for, which is being a super-easy brainless markup language that can compile to reasonable LaTeX documents, freeing me from LaTeX boilerplate.

I've been collecting the most frequently used tropes on hn. It includes such fan favorites

- website caused mobile phone to implode

- this math book has too much math

- this math doesn't have enough math

- cockroach db offends me in my soul

- org-mode does my dishes and tucks me in every night

- functional programming is the messiah

- functional programming is the devil

- software interviews are like being on a cattle car in Poland in the late 1930s

- people that can't pass software interviews shouldn't be allowed to reproduce

- ...

Once I get enough I'll build a bot that can simulate hn for me and then I'll never come here again

One I'm guilty of: JavaScript desktop applications are not desktop applications.
