Being on HN (no matter how much time you spend here) is probably one of the best learning experiences and ways to invest your time there is.

My daily reading list is usually just about exhausted by the time I go to bed, if HN gets any bigger I'll have to get more selective about what I read.

So much interesting stuff gets posted here.

True - I started programming around 1½ years ago, since it seemed like a good skill to have. Without HN I wouldn't have come as far as I have, and would be oblivious to a lot of core concepts such as the MVC model and recursion. So thank you HN for teaching me stuff I didn't know before.
