News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Hacker News isn't so much about "news" per se.

"News", I believe, should be about something new or recent. We're now talking about an article (op-ed?) written by Aaron in 2006. This isn't news and much of Hacker News isn't either. It's more just curated information.

A glance at the front page finds that it's mostly about new events or commentary; stuff like this is the exception.
