I found the article interesting - thank you - but I'm a little confused as to why it's here on Hacker News. I'm comparatively new here - 75 days - and I'm frequently perplexed by the choices of articles.
You've been around 10x longer than I, and have much more karma. Why is this of relevance to hackers?
I think the Hacker News Guidelines provides the best answer to your question:
On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than
hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be:
anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.
