alt Hacker NewsPlease don't make posts consisting of quotes and nothing else. HN is a supposed to be a site for curious conversation. It's not hard to see how posts like this interrupt that and bog it down - imagine someone at a dinner party* reading entire paragraphs like this out loud.
(* I don't know why I said "dinner party", since I don't go to those, the conversation usually isn't good, and they aren't my idea of fun, but oh well, it makes the point)

Since you have now shadowbanned my comments from the site, I'm guessing you won't read this, so it's probably safe to point out that you are a useless, whiny fag who desperately needs to get out of his mom's basement and get a life.
I don't really understand your point. We should reject ideas that make us feel like we have to sit through a monologue at a dinner party?
It definitely bogs things down. I would have preferred even an AI summary of the text, granted that it was accompanied by additional commentary to tie that to the subject at hand, rather than dumping in text with the assumption that the reader will understand the implicit connection.
