Thanks jacquesm for showing us that it is possible to be content without being complacent, to persuade without proselytizing, to educate without ego obstructions.
My praise would probably be over the top were OP a standalone post, but I reckon it deserves that recognition given the contrast in tone with the posts it references. Hopefully OP inspires more rationality (http://lesswrong.com/lw/31/what_do_we_mean_by_rationality/) and balanced writing in submissions/comments.
I guess instead of commenting on a whole heap of stuff all the time he now focuses on one issue and goes a lot more in depth. Probably makes it easier to segregate the day without wasting to much time reading and engaging on to much on HN.
because you get greater ROI by getting more traffic, getting more ways to monetize it, and owning what you produce. Posting on another site has benefits but it still is sharecropping.
