News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

People take me seriously because my arguments are well-reasoned and well-written. People mistake me for trollish because they are very direct. For instance, the 4th one you cited objected to the use of the word "retard" to describe someone who did something very dumb. If only I were as smart as Ben Stiller I would have somehow made millions off of it.

I have to admit, I've been called a lot of stuff, but you're the first person to actually back it up with citations. Only on Hacker News..,

You also tend to pick topics that people feel very strongly about and are sure to push buttons.
