Fun. I have a visceral dislike for the NYT, so the association is actually a negative, haha — but I could get over it.
The tradeoff of the design is increased information for each story but lower density of stories. The high-density design of the HN page is probably optimal for my purposes, even though some of the user-submitted headlines are opaque enough that I miss some things I would otherwise click on.
