(This comment assumes you actually did stop reading.)

I'm curious about the mind-set that says "Stop reading, I didn't agree with this sentence." Do you read part of a lot of articles on HN? Since you don't know what you're missing I guess you can't answer this but do you think this is a sound strategy for learning anything?

Most don't read blogs for education. If I start reading a blog article that I think might be a lot of nonsense then I will stop reading it.

So you read blogs in order to flatter your preconceptions, then?

I read blogs for entertainment and news.
