I don’t disagree with your statement at all. However, people who contribute useful edits to Wikipedia or high quality answers to Stack Overflow are doing a bit more work than your average Facebook poster :) sorry you’re getting buried on this, I assume your point wasn’t necessarily that it wasn’t more useful than that.

Yes, I was merely commenting about Volume.

Also, if you are passionate about a topic, replying answers comes very naturally to you.

But I don't expect HN to get it

The way I see it, there’s not as much of a gap as people think between the 99th percentile and 50th percentile users, because being active on one of these sites isn’t that difficult. However, I think this person does stick out. It seems there is a massive gap between them and even second place. I think that’s what really makes this astonishing.
