I'm with you. But I've made my peace with it and found a way to make it useful. Most of the news these days is click/flame bait. I just check HN first. The top rated comments on most of these stories is a pretty good barometer of if I need to care or not. Usually not. HN is a meta-filter for mainstream news if you use it right. But yes. Very yes. The "how I did this cool thing" story is sorely missed. A front page full of hope and awesome was a welcome sight each morning. |

Are you sure there are less of those? I'm not. Certainly they're as on topic as ever, and continue to make the front page. I'm not aware of a lot of such stories that get submitted but not upvoted.
